December 11, 2023, Monday night, 7:17pm, pacific standard time, hotel room in Palm Desert, California,USA. Drove to Aliso Viejo this morning, walked the dog, took my daughter to Dunkin’ then school, had back to back calls at 8:30 and 9. Got a workout in at Planet Fitness then came home to wash sheets for my mom and get on an 11am business development call. After that I finished getting ready, then had my last meeting at 1pm. As soon as it ended I got in the car and drove to Palm Desert. Traffic was bad so it took a while. Checked in to the hotel at 5pm, grabbed chipotle for dinner, watched a little Monday night football and now ready to turn in for the night.
