Forgetting to eat

I'm not the kinda girl who likes to miss a meal, but today was the kind of day where I didn't eat anything until 4:45 this afternoon.

I had a potential client meeting first thing morning (looks like I hooked a new client--yay!), and then ran back to the office to prepare for another client meeting. In the two hours in between, I was running around like a crazy person dealing with all of the emergencies that popped up while I was out of the office this morning.

And then I had my second meeting that lasted from 1:00-2:30. Then I immediately launched into negotiations with opposing counsel.

It wasn't until 3:30 that I realized I hadn't eaten anything all day. But by then I was on a short deadline to get an agreement in place so that I could call the court to cancel a hearing that was set for first thing tomorrow morning.

Finally had 5 minutes to scarf down last night's leftover spaghetti at 4:45 before resuming negotiations with opposing counsel. We finally had our agreement set and off to the court by 6:00, and I then spent the next hour and half wrapping up other loose ends.

I could have easily spent another two hours in the office, but I'm exhausted. Hopefully, I can put the time I gained from my canceled hearing to good use tomorrow, because I am buried right now. Hard to believe that just two weeks ago I was watching streaming CLE's at my desk because I didn't have anything else to do.
