I sat on the panel today for the GLBT Education Module to about thirty managers. I always walk away from these sessions feeling like “this is one of my best days at IBM.” Even though I’ve done this several times now, it always gets your heart rate up when you’re actually addressing a room full … Read more

We had our final GLBT Education Module preparation call today, and it was “as usual.” I’m a little doubtful about the thoroughness of the handouts tomorrow, since Allan only found them at the last minute, and repro couldn’t deliver on the 2nd Will & Ned poster. Oh well. That’s out of my circle of influence. … Read more

Yay, it’s Tuesday — not Monday. No meeting to prep for. At the last minute, our weekly TIGR meeting was canceled. Yay again. I met with Dana D. all afternoon going through the ITIM project’s team room and documents in prep for the end of the month ISO audit. Lots of nonconformance potential. 🙁 Her … Read more

I met Donna and Vince for breakfast at Courtney’s. I haven’t seen Vince in almost ten years, we calculated. His goatee is gray. I had French Toast for breakfast, which was yummy, and they each had “the Atkins special.” At home, I finished the TCW minutes, and played too many games of Zuma. Robert laid … Read more

We slept in this morning. Robert served me breakfast in bed! Sweet! I had a bagel and a hard boiled egg, and some coffee. Mom called to say that she had called Mike about joining them at the VFW or the Moose for their cookout that afternoon. He accepted. She’ll give me a report later. … Read more

We slept in today, and had an omelet breakfast with a bagel and two bananas. It didn’t look pretty, but it tasted pretty good. At about 3:00, we headed out to that Western store out toward Clayton, with the plan of having lunch at White Swan’s in Clayton. We decided to eat first, and when … Read more

I had a 30-minute meeting with Joy D. today and went over the GLBT module stuff with her. Always a pleasure interacting with her. I met Jay and Richard for lunch at Danny’s BBQ, and it’s always fun embarrassing Richard talking about sex. There were some hot men in that place, surprisingly enough. All three … Read more

I had my six-months cleaning and exam today at the dentist. The Govers were on vacation, so Dr. Pleasants was in. He is my least favorite dentist, a cap-happy dentist. I remember, when Donna and I used to go there together, she saw Pleasants and I saw Averette. After she got about 3 or 4 … Read more

I posted my journal entry from yesterday in the EAGLE Discussion database, and got some interesting, fun responses: ================================================================================ Cor! This recalls my visits to the optician. I always find that ‘invasion’ of personal space makes me close to either bursting out laughing or wanting to kiss the optician!!! I always have to calm myself … Read more
