Boot shoppin’ and dancin’…

I did my follow-up diversity meeting today. It was poorly attended, but the folks who were there were real engaged. I felt good after it. Robert and I went boot shopping after work, ordered a pair that should come in in 7-10 business days, and stopped at Chili’s to have dinner. I had the Lettuce … Read more

Lilies…

I worked until a little after 7. I stopped by home, picked up some popcorn, diet coke, and Canadian Club, and went to Jay’s. We watched the DVD of “Lilies.” I really liked it, and loved the soundtrack! I want it.

A TIGR in my tank…

We got up at 7:15 and left for work shortly after 8. I confirmed our MSBC meeting at around 9:30, and everyone but Janet (understandably) was planning to attend.
