Onehundredfourtyseven - Thursday

Onehundredfourtysix - Good Bye Party

One of the team is relocation to the US, and soon another Director will be in place here. Times are changing again.

Onehundredfourtyfive - Meeting Monday, but it is Tuesday

Crazy, Crazy with meeting all day. At least it is a short week.

Onehundredfourtyfour - Zoo

Our son is awesome. We were at the zoo today, and as we walked away from each animal he said "bye, bye", and when we watch the seals being fed, he clapped his hands and said "bravo". He's 17 months old.

Onehundredfourtythree - Park

The other day our son tried to take a shovel from a little girl while playing in the sand box. He's not aware yet of ownership. When he grabbed it she exclaimed "nein, nein, nein" in German. He replied, "nein, nein, nein". He has been repeated things quite a bit recently. But this morning he started playing with all the knobs on the stove, while we were cooking breakfast. My wife said, "no, no, don't do that" and he walked away. He grabbed the chair at the kitchen table and turned around, "nein, nein, nein." He's now a translator.

Onehundredfourtytwo - New Comp

We just got a new computer. Everything was great, but when I tried to install MS Office on it, it would not install. So I rebooted, and it blue screened on me. I cannot stand that. You buy a nice piece of equipment for once, and out of the box there is an issue. This shouldn't happen. I was able to recover from it, but I should not have to reinstall the OS on a new system just so the fucker works?!? I was a bit disenfranchised by this.

Onehundredfourtyone - Chill Day at Work

The last day in the office before a 3 day weekend. Most people took the Friday off too so they could have a 4 day weekend. It was nice to be able to get some work done in a low stress environment.

Onehundredfourty - Ready for Weekend

For some reason this day seemed to drag on and on. It was 2pm and it felt like it should be 6pm, maybe there was something in the lunch food which slowed the afternoon down.

Onehundredthirtynine - Babysitting

I gained quite a bit more insight today. I got home from work and planned to relax, but from the moment my wife left for the evening, our son started to cry, a lot. It took about an hour to put him back down. My wife is awesome for all that she does!
