Long day

8:11am
Phil: Today my co-workers are hearing that the military no longer needs their service. This is going to suck.  They have years in and were planning on military retirement and now thatโ€™s not going to happen.  Friggin government. We need to take every politician and dress them in uniforms, give them a rifle and send them off to fight for 18 months.  They would make a lot of decisions differently.
My dinner came out as good as any I have had in any chinese place. Better than most I would say. Not healthy but man, it’s good! Have a great day! Now I’m hungry. ๐Ÿ™‚
8:44am
Good morning. What can I say to make this day easier?  Nothing.  Lay-offs suck.  I’ve been on both sides and it’s awful either way.  But sometimes, as for me, it’s the best thing that ever happens – let me do different and wonderful things like getting involved with my projects. I will be thinking of you all. 

8:51am
Where’s the photo of your dinner?  You’re supposed to document your masterpieces!!  ๐Ÿ™‚ It’s amazing to hear about your creative dishes.  You torture me with visions of meals I can’t taste… like other delights you’ve shown me that I can’t get here.  But I am very glad to know they exist!   

5:13pm
What a day!  Survived staff mtg, then spent 3 hours re-typing every line item in our budget into a simplified spreadsheet so my boss might be able to understand it.  Finance is not his forte, so I do what I can to make it clearer.  Leaving the office, thinking of you and hoping your day went ok. 

7:30pm
Phil: Just got home.  Sucked. Time for scotch.  I really need a drink.

7:30pm
I hear you.
Want to talk about it?  Or something else, to forget?

9:02pm
Did you get your drink?  Hope you’re having a relaxing evening.  

11:18pm
Phil: I did! Nite girl.
