My car antenna is being fixed today; hurray! Courtney picked me up at Triangle Car Care (TCC) just after 8:00. We had a fun ride into work, which was new but familiar. Familiar in that it was the ride into work, new that we went by highway 70, and the ride in was fun. Always … Read more

We got up at about 9:00, and Robert made French toast for us, and he tried out the egg poaching pan he bought me last week. DELICIOUS! We took apart my old computer and the desk it was sitting on, and packed them into Robert’s car. He’s going to use my computer to practice on … Read more
We had breakfast at the farmer’s market. Yum. We walked around a bit afterward, and bought a couple of pieces of fudge. From there, we went to the Factory Card Outlet, where Robert looked exhaustedly for a wedding card. He was a typical NP card shopper — always keeping his options open until a better … Read more
I arrived at work this morning to find a voice mail message from Susanne saying, “John, I hope you don’t mind, but you’re going to Los Angeles for three weeks a week from Monday.” Actually, I’m going to Irvine, just outside L.A. to work with the Access360 writer, Kim, on rebranding the pubs for the … Read more
Great day at work today finishing up the Planning Guide’s final touches and getting them to the Web site for tomorrow’s GA date. Got home with just enough time to grab a quick dinner before David L. arrived to drive to book club. We took 64E to Pittsboro, which I had never done, so enjoyed … Read more
That’s where I am. It’s a good place. I think I’ll stay a while. Had a great day at work today. Worked diligently with Bill to wrap up the Planning Guide. I left work at around 5:30, and went home to read. I finished HOW I LEARNED TO SNAP at 7:40! Yippee! Now I’m all … Read more
Working on a deadline for the Planning Guide. Officially should have been done today, but will buy more time without penalty. Book club lunch today at the Tivoli cafeteria. Janet showed up late; no fallout from note exchange on swapping last week’s meeting with little notice. She was just back from her cousin Bruce’s wedding … Read more
I got six cards written… birthday thank-yous and my weekly card to Jeanie-baby. Also got EAGLE stuff in the mail to Randy. It was a “snail mail” kind of day. I spent a good deal of time this evening creating the TCW volunteer list that we’re trying to put together to create a Yahoo Group … Read more
I slept until noon — exactly what I wanted to do. I read HOW I LEARNED TO SNAP in the afternoon. At around 4:30, I shaved and showered to head to O’Charley’s. I met Will, Steve, Jay, and Joe for dinner. I had a delicious club sandwich and fries! Our waiter was dorky, and tried … Read more
