Almost done, and Brooks & Dunn…

We had our 2nd to the last training ride today! We rode out at 9:30, and it was around 30 miles starting at North Wake High School. [Insert training ride journal entry here.] Robert arrived early afternoon, and we took about a half hour nap before heading over to Vann’s for the pre-concert party. It … Read more

The blahs…

We had a GLBT Leadership meeting this morning with Chris. Bagels, danish, banana bread, pound cake, coffee, and orange juice. We met in “Cafe D” off the 002 Cafeteria instead of our normal place in E301/B002. A poor showing, really. Cheryl, Stan, Mark E., Jay, me, and Jon. This doesn’t seem to bother Chris. I … Read more

Busy, busy, work…

As I was packing my breakfast at about 8:00 this morning, I remembered that I had a 7:40 appointment for my annual eye exam. Shit! On the way in, I called and they actually had an opening at 9:30, which I took. I got to the Dr.’s office right at 9:30, and at 10:05 they … Read more

MSBC Book Club… and dancing…

We had MSBC lunch today. Sharon was out of town, and Janet never showed. Me, Mary, and Suzanne had fun as usual. Suzanne shared her frustrating customer service story with Volkswagen regarding her sunroof tubes saga. Unbelievable. Robert came over for dinner, and told me about the new car he had purchased, and all about … Read more

Telephonage… almost…

I worked late again today. I’m really enjoying my work now, though, so that’s not a bad thing. I called my home phone after noon to make sure it was working. It wasn’t. I submitted an online problem report, which ended, “This is not a good start with your company.” I was told they would … Read more

Shopping…

Had a real restless night last night. I probably totaled 2.5 hours sleep. I kept dreaming about work and waking up. Not good. Two meetings went well today: GLBT Education Module Review of last session, and Alan’s “War Room” meeting. That’s a stupid name for that meeting in my opinion. “Met” Cassandra today. She seems … Read more

Rain, rain, go away…

Robert got up at 7, and left for work. I called Joe and told him that I wasn’t going to the training ride, as, once again, it was raining. I went back to sleep, and slept until noon. Glorious! I left the house at about 2:00, and went to REI to return the tire I … Read more

Fun and games…

Susanne came to Games Night tonight. It was fun. I asked her out in the parking lot afterward, “So how did it feel being the only straight person in there?” “I wasn’t!” “Yes you were.” “Well, they were all nice people. And I didn’t come here to get a date. I really enjoyed it. I … Read more

Tennis anyone?

Robert made us breakfast. I worked from home today. He left at about 10:00. Kim Sametimed me just as I was logging off. I was able to help her solve an IDWB problem. I felt good about that. I rushed to Fletcher Park to meet Jim for tennis. I missed the Crabtree exit, and went … Read more
