So, this week I’m working Tuesday and Wednesday (today) instead of Tuesday and Thursday (my normal schedule) to attend a mandatory class on Asset Security that is only offered today. Well, it was also offered last Tuesday, but I got notice of the meeting one hour before it was to start, and had editing I … Read more
I worked from home this morning, finishing up the ITIM InfoCenter Topics edit for Chris. I had my 1:1 with Dolores. She informed me about a slip in a product for which I’m doing an edit, which gives me more time to do a quality edit instead of the rushed one I was going to … Read more
I forgot to mention that, over the weekend, I started reading The Da Vinci Code. Well, technically, I started listening to it, not reading it. I received the 13-CD set of the unabridged audio version of the book, and before leaving for the beach, uploaded it to my laptop, and then downloaded it to my … Read more
We woke up at about nine, and dragged our asses down to the lobby to check out the complimentary breakfast that went from 6AM – 10AM. We had coffee, a bagel, and a danish. Joe was not impressed with the coffee. I thought it was fine. He’s a coffee connoisseur. I’m not. We decided to … Read more
We got up, packed for the beach, and headed out to the Port City Java on Market Street. The one we usually go to had burned down after a woman drove her car through it, so we were going to one “further up” on Market Street. Market Street Port City Java burns Sep 22, 2005 … Read more
I got up just after 8:00, hopped in the shower, woke up Irene, and put on a pot of coffee. I checked Lizzie’s (Irene’s niece’s) flight, which was scheduled to arrive at 9:17, but had an estimated arrival time of 8:06. We checked in my cell to see where Susan (Irene’s sister, Lizzie’s mother) were … Read more
I worked from home this morning, and left, with Irene, at about 11:15, to meet Will, Milton, E-Ching, Amelia, and Courtney for lunch at Pipers’s in the Park for an 11:30 surprise lunch for Courtney, honoring her permanent job offer from IBM. We arrived just after 11:30, and found ourselves the first one there. At … Read more
Irene’s flight was scheduled to arrive at 10:17, but when I checked its status on the web, it showed an “actual” arrival of 10:42. I left home at about 10:30, and drove to the outlet mall, and waited there for her to call instead of circling at the airport. I parked in a shady spot … Read more
I worked from home this morning, and went to book club in B002 for lunch. Only Suzanne and I were there today, and she caught me up on Christopher’s situation. From there, I went to my office, where I worked until about 7:00, finishing up Emma’s edit. At home, I heated up the leftover grilled … Read more
I met Kevin at Helios, and it was a beautiful day to be outside enjoying the weather, having coffee, and doing whatever the hell I wanted to do. There were two guys walking around measuring walls and such, no doubt beginning this work. A girl walking by them asked them a question, which I couldn’t … Read more
