Or at least lots of travel in order to run those errands:

adrian_turtle, I took a bus from her place to Trader Joe's. I wasn't planning to buy vegetables, but the produce section is just inside the door, and they had asparagus. $1.99/bunch is a good price, even in season, so I bought two bundles of asparagus, which is more than enough for two people. Or it's enough to be most of if a dinner, if the two people are us.
cattitude made a very nice sauce for the asparagus; we ate lots of asparagus, and then a little bit of ham to fill in the corners.
I also found most of what was on the TJ's part of my shopping list: dried cherries, frozen fish, and "anything else that looks good in the freezer aisle," which turned into latkes, at Adrian's suggestion. Since we're stocking up a little, I got two kinds of dried cherries instead of one, and three packages of fish: two packages of sockeye salmon fillets and one of tuna steaks.
I noticed a couple of smudges on my glasses while I was out, but neither lens cloths and the lens-cleaning spray the optician gave me, nor soap and hot water, got them off. So I went back to Arlington Center, hoping Ron (the optician) could fix it, but prepared to ask about replacing just one lens.
I don't know what Ron did, but it worked. He took my glasses to the back of the shop. When he came back out, he handed them to me with a cheerful "Abracadabra." They were as good as new, and I thanked him and left.
Since there was still plenty of room in the freezer, I stopped at Lizzy's in Harvard Square and got two containers of ice cream.
That was all useful and a good use of energy and attention, but by the time I got home the second time I was worn out enough to not to do PT exercises. But tomorrow is another day.
