Personal day today. Taking care of the S.O.'s shopping list-she always has one when I come to the US. Going out to the house and checking on it-especially since I will probably be coming back to it. As a drive around here-I am reminding myself of the fact that every

We had a good couple of days of meetings-but here it is 10pm and I am back in my room getting ready for bed. And this with a 1 hour nap I took from 5:30 to 6:30. I am getting old. 🙁 I suspect too, being in three cities over

Well we met our new "team mates" yesterday. As I expected it, it did not go well: It was an interesting exercise in surrealism. Our current boss was basically pre-empted by the GS-15 who seeks to enslave replace him. That issue has not been determined yet-but this guy acted
