Makin' banana pancakes, pretend like it's the weekend now

This is my first truly free Saturday since May or June. Been working so hard for the past several months. It feels really, really good to relax and stay in bed a bit. It's the kind of morning when, in my old habits, I would have made a giant batch of pancakes. I don't really eat pancakes anymore because of all the sugar in syrup, but I plan to find other health-compatible ways to treat myself.

I have an accounting midterm tomorrow that is worth 25% of my grade. I feel pretty confident, actually, and am not really worried at all. I would really like to graduate from Georgetown with straight A's, and so far I'm doing a great job on that path.
 
Yesterday at CrossFit was kind of a milestone for me in terms of intensity and ambition of the workout. We did a WOD called Andy in honor of Veterans' Day. While wearing a 20 lb vest, 25 thrusters, 50 box jumps, 75 deadlifts, run 1.5 miles, 75 deadlifts, 50 box jumps, 25 thrusters. I love this sport and love the way it strengthens my mind and my body. That 1.5 mile run during the middle was almost Zen-like in terms of peace and mindfulness.

It looks like I may take my CFA and my DELF exam in Paris next June. It depends how finances work out, but I think that's where I'm leaning.
