| Today was my antepenultimate work day at IBM. I worked from home, and I completed Eric’s edit. I canceled my “One-on-One Meeting” scheduled with my manager for 4:00. What would be the point really?
I got to the gym at about 4:45, and I did an upper body workout, after which I enjoyed a slice of pepperoni pizza, since it was Free Pizza Monday at Planet Fitness. Tomorrow is Free Bagel Tuesday. Woohoo! |

I dropped by the Cameron Village Library to pick up a book I’d requested: Oracle Bones: A Journey Through Time in China.
Before leaving I stepped next door into The Fresh Market to confirm that everything in there is over-priced, which I did noting the $5.99 price of watermelon. At Food Lion, they’re usually $4.99 and sometimes $3.99.
From there, I went to the NCSU library, and the guy in the car in front of me on Hillsborough Street and I both parked at the same time, both of us parallel parking in two spots, one in front of the other. He backed into the back one, and then I backed into the one in front of him.
When we got out of our respective cars, he—looking like a freshman or sophomore at the most—said, “Hey man. What’s a NEMATOME?” [My license plate moniker.]
I explained it to him, and he said, “Cool. Are you a professor here?”

(Photog)Rob sent me some pictures from the weekend. Here’s living proof that at one time in my life I wore a cowboy hat, long pants, and boots.
