A hunting we will go

Long day at work today. I was in the office just after 6 AM and worked steadily until heading out the door at 4 PM. I brought in my apple, ale and cheddar soup in for lunch, and brought an extra bowl for Casey to give it a try. He said he enjoyed it. There was a package [...]

More odd sleep patterns

Most people were not at work today. But Kelly and I headed in as usual. It was a quiet morning for the most part, but a busy afternoon. I had lunch with Monica at CPK (Todd was supposed to be there, too, but never showed up.) I then prepared for a 2 PM meeting that was more contentious than [...]

Good Monday

Up just before 6 AM with a killer stomach ache, the first one in a really long time. Eventually it went away. I was good today about meals. 5 small meals beginning around 7 AM and spread about every three hours throughout the day. For dinner I made chicken and had what was left of my apple, ale [...]

More Tiger

Productive day at work today. It was cold and overcast and there were threats of snow flurries, but I didn’t see any snow today. When I picked Kelly up from work, I cleaned up a bit. I scoured the kitchen, cleaned the litter boxes and took out the trash and recycling. We watched the two most recent [...]

Gettin’ caught in the rain…

It was unusually warm yesterday, over 70 degrees by mid-morning. Kelly and I walked up to Pentagon City where we had brunch at Harry’s Tap Room. We then wandered around the mall for a little while, popping in and out of various shops, just browsing, not buying. We walked back home and about halfway, the [...]

The best sandwich ever

I felt much better when I woke up this morning and as a result, I had a productive day at work today and it felt good. The day concluded with a two hour meeting. Kelly was waiting for me at the mall when the meeting was over and we headed home together. It was a quiet and relaxing [...]

Another lazy Sunday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY goes out to the Norm half of vickyandnorm today! Sore today from all of the Wii playing yesterday. (Can you believe it? Sore from a video game?) Another lazy day today. We slept in but were up in time to watch Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood. It was a beautiful day out, but [...]

Slow Saturday

It was a slow day today, but that was nice, especially since it’s the last weekend before returning to work. We lazed around for much of the day today, although we did manage to get in some Wii playing early this afternoon. I did some chores at home, and started reading Walter Isaacson’s Einstein. I [...]

TV day

Up at about 6:30 AM in order to take Kelly into work. I stopped in at the office in order to fill out some HR paperwork to update my marital status and add Kelly to my various insurances. When that was done, I spent much of the day catching up on various TV shows that I missed [...]

On all 8 cylinders

Have you ever had one of those days where it seems you are running on all 8-cylinders? Where everything moves smoothly and seamlessly, almost effortlessly? Today was not one of those days. It was, in fact, an incredibly busy, fragmented day at work. It was one of those days where I was in two meetings [...]

Reading and writing

Another busy day at work today. I managed to find myself in meetings from 11 AM until 3 PM. Looks like I’ve got the same schedule on the books for tomorrow, too. I finished John Scalzi’s The Ghost Brigades at lunch today. I loved it. I was very tempted to rate it 4.5 stars, but in nearly 400 books, I’ve [...]

Book-walking

Up at 6:40-ish and into the office shortly thereafter. Another productive morning, but an afternoon stuck in meetings. Fortunately, a meeting that was scheduled for 2 hours only lasted an hour. That was a pleasant surprise, considering it’s usually the other way around. I left the office around 4 PM, and walked home. But I read while [...]
