For the first time since I started the current gig at McGraw-Hill, I left the building for lunch today (rather than either bringing a sandwich, or buying lunch in the company cafeteria and eating it there).
I went to Excellent Dumpling, in Chinatown.
My office is at 2 Penn Plaza, basically above Penn Station. But I haven't found anything reasonable in the area--sure, sandwiches and a "toss your own salad" set-up in the LIRR concourse at Penn Station, and delis that offer the same sort of stuff I can get in the company cafeteria. But I wanted a real meal at a decent price, and I have an unlimited Metrocard. So I walked over to 34th and Sixth, took the N down to Canal, and was seated in the usual place and got my almost-inevitable sweet ginger duck over rice.
On the way back to the train, I bought a pound of cherries.

Half a workout is better than none. "Half" in terms of how much I normally do, and of how much I'd hoped to do this evening. (And it doesn't take as long, which is not entirely a bad thing when I'm fitting exercise, grocery shopping, and cooking in after a full day at the office.)
In addition to needing to avoid certain exercises for the sake of my right shoulder, I discovered when I tried doing leg presses that my left leg--despite, or maybe because of, having happily gone through three sets on the calf machine--wasn't happy about supporting that weight. It's downright annoying to go to the trouble of loading plates on the leg press machine, and then have to unload them again without getting the good of them.
