Chris’ business meeting was sparsely attended (again) — Beth, Cheryl, Jeff, me, and Jay. Most of the meeting was spent talking about EAGLE apathy. The EAGLE lunch was disappointing, but in character with apathy — one other person, Renae, showed up to watch the POV special on Bayard Rustin. What an amazing gay man. I … Read more
I had lunch with Suzanne today. Always good to have some 1-on-1 time with her. Department meeting was canceled as Denny was not available to come as Susanne’s guest speaker. Sent Guardian/SafeGuard book out for final review today. Made good headway on the AP Listener book. Early afternoon Deb B. called from the NCStraightSpouse group … Read more
We woke up to a winter wonderland — well a winter iceland, at least. Even though our site was closed today, I spent most of the day doing work — downloading (from ISSI) and configuring the AT&T Dialer, Lotus Notes, Sametime, and IDWB onto my desktop. I had to call the Helpdesk to help configure … Read more
One of the first things we did was to decide to call off dinner tonight with Rodney and Jeff. It’s just too “iffy” as to when this storm is going to start, and we don’t want to be worrying about it all day. We are proposing a reschedule on March 16th, which is the next … Read more
After breakfast and a shower, we left the house at about 12:30, and stopped by the post office to check the TCW mail. From there, we went to K-Mart and bought a grill cover and two gas tanks for my new grill. We stopped at the grocery store on the way home, and bought stuff … Read more
Robert called just after 4:00 to say he wouldn’t make it in time to go to Crabtree with me to pick up my tux, so I went straight there instead of going home first. I tried on the tux, and everything was fine. I made Mark polish the shoes, which were “streaked.” He used Windex … Read more
Class finished up at 1:00 today. I came home and worked from home doing the indexing for the Guardian/Safeguard document. I will tag the entries first thing in the morning. I sent some TCW correspondences, one to Mason about getting started on the feedback form, and one to Robert about updating the next round of … Read more
Another good day of class. Zach, the instructor, has a lot of energy, and I appreciate that. The team worked well together, and “interviewing Mr. Sanders,” at the end of the day was a real trip. Paula was like a Pit Bull on crack with him, and Rich was relentless as well. I thought the … Read more
Today was the first day of ISO Auditor Training, and it was a good class. “Rich,” on my team is quite a sexy man, in his “messed-up-hair-I-don’t-care-what-I-look-like” kind of way. His mantra for the day was, “It’s a major!” (referring to the grade of an ISO non-conformity). Paula was the other person on my team … Read more
We had an EAGLE Officers Meeting after work today. Cheryl had to cancel at the last meeting. I made it clear that I need to be out of this communications role by the kickoff meeting, which is not looking good right now with 9 RSVPs. Also, the nominations for new officers is not looking good, … Read more
