How do you manage the day's last spurt of energy?

"The way I do it, there are still 56 minutes left to watch two episodes of The Brady Bunch on TV Land and I [have] enough energy to go downstairs and make a ham and swiss with horseradish, tomato and lettuce on artisian bread during the first commercial break. If I watch The Brady Bunch first, and Marsha's in it a lot, then we're down to two minutes."

If I comment, I'll get in trouble.

Marcia Brady and "the day's last spurt of energy."

Well, that certainly is going to take some readers back to a younger time.

Having spent a good deal of my life working at night, now that I have a "regular" job, I still find it hard to get to sleep before midnight...and I have to be at work at 0630 each day.

The real tragedy is how I choose to spend all of those extra hours. I strongly suspect the 70-year-old me is going to be livid at the current me. Even knowing and acknowledging that, I still sacrifice those hours at the alter of "me time".

A lot of it is what is it that I have to get done.

Priorities get you over the line.

Eating (sandwiches) so late will lead to heartburn, acid reflux, and eventually GERD.

I would suggest something else to snack on.
