|| On the run, a typical day?

3:34am in the morning, I woke up or was I dreaming anyway. I was sleepless again, turning, churning, struggling, do I call someone, do I call him, no, I shouldn't, no, I couldn't, no, I would not let myself rot like this.

7:30am the alarm went off.

8:30am the car got settled in the garage, only then did I remember that I've got to have my laptop repaired from the PC on the run workshop. I ran to west creek 6, oh my, people had been waiting there. Yes, the body hardware had arrived. But the wireless feature didn't work, and the first meeting had already started. Wait, Yang was calling my cell phone ...

9:30am the stingy room was full of people. I thought I could take a breath of something, 'cause I haven't had my breakfast, not even a cocoa drink. All right, I digged in. Tanya showed up with a piece of paper with numbers and handwriting. Fantastic, Chris and Steve are going to have a meeting at 2pm, but I still beat Tanya knowing stuff before she did.

11:00am back to the PC on the run, yes, they tested it five times. Off I ran, and on the way, I booted the machine. It appeared to be fine. Yeah, Matt is already waiting on me. 10 minutes pull up on hierarchy change, silence is gold ... 15 minute I pulled up the quality service supply/demand decks and fired them away to Keller. Tammy stopped by, she was checking on me, oh, she has been so nice to me, but I drove her away, fire drills.

12:10pm started to pack and taking off to Applebees.

12:30pm walked in with guilt into Applebees, ordered myself a chicken casadia and unsweetened iced tea. I had to sit at the end of the corner with Rich, Anil, Shawn, Raj and David. Terrible timing, terrible seating, they talk about football, baseball ... but I managed to finish up my plate, which is a first time in the past 30 days.

1:30pm bowling America time, sucks, gutters, as usual, 3 rounds ... left my cell phone on the table.

4:15pm back home, logged to VPN, my, dozens of e-mails on risks/opps, hierarchy changes, budget moves, HW/SW misses, product features ... started to give answers or pass on.

5:30pm ready to go to Victoria Secret, semi-annual sale started from today, but one more e-mail popped up that needs to be addressed immediately.

6:00pm met Yang in the store, she is quick onto things already, bras are not impressive, panties are not my tastes. I wanted lounge clothes, they've got so many styles online, but there are none in store. I picked up a couple of lounge pants, waited to try them on, no, didn't fit or flatter the shape.

7:00pm came back and started cooking and chatting with Yang, did he block me, did he delete me, no, I do not want to get online and find it out.

8:00pm dinner is ready.

9:45pm blogging, e-mails, chatting, nonsense.

.....

Surprise of the day - I met Yang Xiaoguang, and he told me that he is Carter's friend. Small world, Carter himself just mentioned it a couple of weeks ago in the front of me. "How did you know his wife"? Of course, I had to lie, a random friend.
