On my refrigerator…

Not as productive a day at work as I would have liked. I left at 4:00 to get home to get two Happy Birthday stamps (for Lisa and Jeane’s cards), but leaving IBM decided to run to Chapel Hill to deliver Robert’s laptop in case he didn’t make it to dancing tonight. Leaving Chapel Hill … Read more

I worked from home today again due to the weather. My phone kept beeping during the TIGR call. Turns out it hadn’t sat on the cradle correctly and was running out of charge. I ended up putting it in the base and listening on the speaker phone. I did my taxes tonight. Yippee! Refunds on … Read more

My 1:00 meeting was canceled today. Yippee! The managers needed to have an emergency personnel meeting (which can’t be good), and since most of them had my meeting on their calendar, it was the only time they could all get together. I did a little research on the web for my homework to see if … Read more

I got up at about 10:00, and cooked some sausage for sausage biscuits. Yum. I went to Third Place at noon to meet Chasman. There was a black guy there, but he was working on a computer, and wasn’t looking around like he was there to meet someone. I had on my ibm.com sweatshirt to … Read more

I’m glad to be done with that 500 page book. It’s hard to believe we read that whole book in four weeks. I’m glad to be done with it … Read more

Robert and I went to Bogart’s for our Valentine’s Day dinner. We had a $50 gift certificate from Robert’s nephew and his girlfriend, Bryan and Jen, and we used that toward our bill of just under $53.00. The food was very disappointing there, but we both enjoyed trying a new place, and we did have … Read more

Class was canceled due to Dr. Brad being ill. I went to work out, and met Steven. Nice guy. We had a good workout, and a brisk one-mile walk on the indoor track. Several of my This Week magazines are still in the racks. I was going to go to Trailer Park Trash, but as … Read more
