~Sunday~ I finished the Manbites board of directors meeting minutes this morning, and sent them to Jeff and Ed for review, before making them available to the full board. I got a chuckle out of this postcard in this week’s PostSecrets: I met Sharon, Suzanne, and Janet out at the Brier Creek Caribou for this … Read more
~Saturday~ I was up at 7:30 this morning, and I left for Durham at 9:45, so as not to be rushed for my 10:30 meeting downtown. We had a productive Manbites Dog Theater board meeting, which was scheduled to end at noon, and we actually adjourned at 11:50. My kind of calendar integrity. I ran … Read more
~Friday~ I worked from Bruegger’s Bagels at Mission Valley this morning until leaving at about 10:30 for my 11:00 doctor’s appointment out at RTP. While I was waiting in the line, I looked around to see if my award was framed and hanging anywhere, but I didn’t see it. When it came time to pay, … Read more
~Thursday~ I was at the city bus stop at 8:18. Because the bus didn’t arrive until 8:25, and there was no one else waiting at the stop after that deluge of students yesterday, I was starting to wonder if I’d missed it getting out there at 8:18. I guess those students only have Monday-Wednesday classes … Read more
~Wednesday~ A while ago, my friend Bob, who reads my blog and knows I haven’t changed the blade in my razor since February 4, 2011, gave me an ARKO shaving soap stick, saying that it gives him such a smooth, smooth shave (of his head), and joking that it could probably allow me to use … Read more
~Tuesday~ The university buses started running for the fall semester, and I rode over to the stop at Avent Ferry and Gorman, first running by Hardees to pick up a breakfast biscuit. At least two kids on the bus asked the driver where they needed to get off for the McKimmon center, which the bus … Read more
~Monday~ I had another big ol’ bowl of All-Bran Bran Buds cereal for breakfast and brushed my teeth right after eating it, which was gross. Nothing worse than a fiber-toothed tiger. Packing my lunch to bring into the office, I couldn’t find my pill box. Not my pillbox hat; I know where that is—right there … Read more
~Sunday~ I was up at 8:30, but wanted to sleep more, so I reset my alarm for 9:00. I couldn’t fall back asleep, though, thinking about the work I had to do today, so I got up and got started with the day. My “GI issue” is back today, and since I ate that “quite … Read more
~Saturday~ I was up at 7:30 this morning, after some very weird, very “involved” dreams. I didn’t mention my stop at the grocery store yesterday on the way home from the gym, but while there, I bought a box of All-Bran cereal and ate a huge bowl of it for dinner last night, along with … Read more
~Friday~ I took a sick day today, and went back to sleep after sending an email to that effect to my boss. I took two more Pepto-Bismol tablets. I woke up at 11:25 and downstairs adding the coffee to my coffeemaker, which is right under my calendar on the side of the fridge, I noticed … Read more
