Post-workout breakfast thoughts

fajrdrakoI'm sitting in the Wild Oat on Bank at Fourth, eating a Classic Sweetsucker crepe (cinnamon, lemon, organic sucanat, whatever that is) and sipping an incredibly delicious cappucino.
I have my back to the door, which is unusual for me. In front of me is a huge mirror, but it isn't bothering me - I can see the street through the window. I'm reading, or browsing, "Read it and Eat" by Sarah Gardner, who seems like my kind of reader, though not into Marvel comics, and she watches the kind of TV I hide from. (Dr. Phil. Jerry Springer.)
But her university experiences were somewhat like mine - for all she was in literature and I was in history. The academics felt she wasn't serious enough for an academic career. Me, I think she should have persisted. I think *I* should have persisted, though I had good reasons for not doing so.
Mentioning TV reminds me that the new trainer at the gym I go to, Debbie, is a "Coronation Street" fan. Cool. No, I don't watch Corrie, unless Ian McKellen is on it, but many people I have loved did or do, and I like to keep up on the storylines. Debbie tells me the CBC is no longer six months behind the current continuity. Amazing.
