Best Laid Plans

I had big plans for today. Here is how I planned out my work day:

  • 9:00 – 10:30 AM: Go to a client and drop off a new computer. Configure the PC and do a couple of other quick chores.
  • 10:35 AM – 12:00 PM: Work on Web pages.
  • 12:00 PM – 12:30 PM: Lunch.
  • 12:30 PM – 4:00 PM: Work on Web pages.
  • 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM: Finish up an article for my blog.
  • 5:00 PM – ?: Dinner, family time, etc.

Here is how my day actually went:

  • 9:30 AM: Arrive at client and configure computer.
  • 10:00 AM – 4:30 PM: Try to fix a program on the client’s server that just so happened to stop working while I was there.

And that was that. I got absolutely no Web work or writing done today. How tragic. I will try to get some done this evening but am not holding out any great hope! But hey, at least I logged some good billable hours today so it’s not all bad…
