Work was uneventful today. BT was unable to make the process meeting due to a conflict with a customer call. We had a short meeting, which went well. During the day, I got a call from my old friend Rebecca. How great to reconnect. Her life has had some major change over the past year, … Read more
I spent way too much of a beautiful day indoors. The weather was absolutely stunning today, and for all intents and purposes, I missed it. I slept a lot today. Some of the voices in my head would say, “You deserve it.” At 8:30, I just had to get out. I went to the “Cookout” … Read more
I spent the entire day today engrossed in creating the Tour de Friends section of my home page. I got the page done with the audio connections embedded in them, and “activated it” for a while in order for Robert to test it from the Internet. It worked! I can’t wait to get the rest … Read more
The DQTI class was fun today. This is the first time Courtney and I have been in an IBM class together, and we actually behaved ourselves. Fran taught it, and he is such a delightful teacher. So funny. At one point he accidentally skipped a slide, and he made this sound like he was rewinding, … Read more
Uneventful work day. No meeting with Cassandra today. I’m beginning to think Wednesday’s are not a good day for us to meet. We had our weekly call with Allan. I think he’s lonely. I’m annoyed with the rescheduling of the 06/23 GLBT Education Module, but I’m dealing with it. I hate when things are unsettled. … Read more
The TIGR meeting went well today. Randy facilitated. I asked for 15 minutes on next week’s agenda to talk about effectiveness assessment. I asked Mary’s question about impact assessments for defects. We had bookclub, which was shadowed a bit because Suzanne didn’t show up, and didn’t call anybody to let them know. This is unusual … Read more
My Monday meeting went well today. The reaction/response to my effectiveness analysis was underwhelming. Oh well. I got responses from both Carl and Alan on my follow-up Will & Ned poster. Nothing from Mel and Mark. Typical. I received acknowledgment for my thank-you notes to both Chris and Barry for their participation in the conference … Read more
I caught up my journal, and Robert “fixed me” breakfast. He toasted me an energy bar, and brought it up to me along with a hard-boiled egg, and a cup of coffee. Sweetness. He had a little bite, some coffee, and did the N&O crossword puzzle. He left around noon. I showered and headed out … Read more
Though the concert was sold out, we didn’t wait at all to get parked. Amazing. We ended up in our seats by about 7:10. The concert was scheduled to start at 7:30, but actually started at about 7:25. The first warm-up band was The Warren Brothers. I had never heard of them, and didn’t at … Read more
