A weekend off.
I don’t remember the last time I didn’t spend the weekend working my ass off, so the theme of this weekend was “I’m Not Doing Anything”. It went really well. Friday I did help my neighbor move a desk, but that was it for the weekend. I spent Friday night in front of the TV, mostly catching up with the Tour de France. I was really into cycling when I was in high school, so I really enjoy the OLN channel dedicating 3 to 5 hours a day to it.
Saturday I slept in. Vanessa picked-up lunch since it was a little late for breakfast. We saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (gooooood) and relaxed at home before meeting up with James, Reina, Steve, and Diane to go to the OC Fair. It was great to just relax and eat crappy food. We tried to be good, but we ended up sharing a chicken teriyaki bowl, an eggroll on a stick, deep-fried artichoke, deep-fried mushrooms, deep-fried zucchini, deep-fried twinkies, and deep-fried Oreos. Yummmm.
Sunday I slept in even more. We went to my mom’s to teach her about the new Tivo Vanessa and I got for her. She was very happy and took us out for Thai food. Yum. For dinner we picked up some fresh fruit, stopped for some frozen yogurt, and cooled down from the hot day as we ate in the shade. Afterward we saw Batman Begins (gooooooood). Then it was time to sleep.
Work is going well. It’s not really stressful per se, but it is definitely non-stop concentration for 10 hours a day (except lunch). Unfortunately, there is absolutely no time to surf the internet or update my blog during the day.
BARNEY UPDATE: Barney is doing pretty well. I haven’t caught him in any lies lately. He isn’t constantly calling home anymore (that I know of). He comes in on time, does a pretty good job, and stays late to finish his work. He’s not even spending all day talking with everyone. I’m not sure how long this will last, but I’ve been happy with him for the last week or so. He is even communicating well with the salespeople and buyers. There’s still work to be done, but if he can keep this up I will be happy. Now that I think about it, I think I will run a phone report on him tomorrow, just for curiosity.
This weekend, it’s back to the old grind. I might take some time off, but there’s already a bunch of stuff I want to get done. See ya later…
