Woke up at 6:30. I was exhausted. I don't think I slept too well. Partly
because I was hot and partly because I had some wine near bedtime. I like
alcohol but I just don't know if I can really drink it as often as I'd like.
Even in small quantities it seems to have a big impact on my system. Of course,
the less I drink, the more of an impact it has the next time. Anyway, Eriko
bounced right out of bed and started making breakfast. I pulled myself out
after 5 minutes (snooze) and slugged down some milk/coffee. Breakfast went
down quickly and I did a little paperwork or something until it was time
for us to walk to work. Eriko packed me a lunch because my schedule was quite
full and I was unable to come home. In the morning (before the string of
meetings began) I was productive. The nice thing about having less time to
work is that there is less incentive to procrastinate. I had a lot of meetings
today. It wasn't too bad though. I was able to "play" bridge at lunch (for
about an hour). Before I knew it, it was 6 and time to go home. My boss caught
me before I left and told me some interesting news. Things are changing at
work... Eriko was finishing dinner when I arrived at home. We ate, watched
Seinfeld, and spent some time on the couch together. She was a little too
full and tired, so she decided to take a nap. I went into the bedroom and
worked on preparing the AOS (adjustment of status) materials. After about an
hour and a half, she woke up and I returned to the living room. Now Seinfeld,
then shower, then bed.
