things I did today, in no particular order of importance:

- taught a few classes
- ate a turkey sandwich
- agreed to a book deal with Random House Publishing.
- fed the dogs
- watched some Simpsons re-runs while waiting for the Phillies to start

Only one of these things is not part of the daily routine. Can you guess which one?
