Three Hundred Fifty-Second Entry

Today was a long day. Is there ever a short day??

I got up at 5:30, got to work by 6:30. It pisses me off when there is so much traffic that early in the morning. Boooo!!!! I got to work and loaded up on coffee. I had another short night of sleep so I needed all the help I could get.

I was supposed to have a meeting with the plan check engineers at the City of Menlo Park and the owner of a project I am working on. The owner let me know that he would not be able to make the meeting. I took the meeting along and it went well. Just a straight-forward review of the project and the cities comments on the plans. It's good for me to get this experience in dealing with the different agencies and clients and the like.

After work, I came home and had chicken soup for dinner. I was so tired that I fell asleep on the couch for a little while. When I woke up, I put together the remaining chairs we bought at Ikea, and broke down all the cardboard boxes from all the furniture. We have planned out the snacks and beverages pretty well for Amy's happy birthday party on Friday! We are going to have chips and salsa, guacamole, and other snacks. For drinking, we will have the fixings for daiquiris and caipirinhas, wine and beer. Get your drink on! Cake and ice cream of course...

Ralph eludes us yet again. We are upping the assault. Tonight we have placed glue traps all over and I'm going to go buy more tomorrow. I'm thinking about getting some mouse/rat poison to put in the basement. Thanks for the cat suggestions, but Amy and I are both very allergic to cats. We'll get him eventually...
