Day 253/365 (25July2024)
Thursday, the day that whispers sweet nothings about the impending weekend...and then promptly slaps you with a double dose of sprint ceremonies. What’s caffeine when you've got the thrill of back-to-back planning and retrospectives? But fear not, my fellow cubicle warriors, for I brought a secret weapon to the virtual battlefield: a pizza-themed icebreaker!
And oh boy, did things get cheesy! We debated pineapple's rightful place on pizza (spoiler alert: it belongs on a Hawaiian shirt, not a pizza crust), and someone even threw out the wild card of pistachio and mortadella. Pistachio? On pizza? Now that's a flavour combination I never saw coming. But hey, I'm always open to culinary adventures, so consider my taste buds intrigued.
Alas, my running shoes remained unlaced tonight. After a marathon of meetings, the only marathon I was up for could involve Netflix and a comfy couch. But fret not, for I did manage to conquer the Stairway to Heaven today (granted, it was a slightly less epic version than Led Zeppelin's). Just look at this majestic staircase! Okay, maybe it's not quite Mount Olympus, but with a little imagination and a good filter, it's practically paradise.
So, here's to another Thursday survived, fueled by questionable pizza toppings and the power of positive delusion. Remember, folks, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey (and the Instagram-worthy photos you take along the way). Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to dream about pistachio pizza.
Speaking of pizza….last week I had one of the best pizzas ever! I’m usually a veg and Italian sausage or just veg. Last week when visiting a girlfriend I had a chicken tikka pizza! WOW WAS IT EVER GOOD!
