07 March, Monday Diary

at work
Watched "The Circus"
My associate arrived 01:00...
Hell broke loose around 01:30 with a fucked up order in London...client looking for car  on an order that was inadvertently cancelled ...by my associate....15 minutes prior...
Meanwhile someone wanting to change a car in Miami 
(at 4:30 local time) that was scheduled for 5:00 and NOT get charged for it...fat chance. 
Rain started here about 06:10.
And I was gonna leave around 06:30 and walk three blocks to the train station.
Which I did.
Fortunately I had my hoodie, so only THAT got wet.
On board the Red, 6:45.
I connected to the Blue, and even got on the right train, but due to some kinda delay, we were late pulling out of the station.
I called Merry at 7:40, told Her,  should arrive in about 20 minutes.
I got off the train and walked downstairs, off the platform, at 8:01.
It was very windy ...against my wet jacket...and cold.
She pulled in to the parking lot at 8:14.
FML!

With me seething, we went home  in silence.
Plus, I had to pee really badly.
But SHE still had to stop for a gallon of Milk for Babyman.

Home...I quickly urinated...and fed the cats.
She prepped MDM ....leftover baked chicken and sweet potatoes and stuffing....
I sat at the living room table and ate while reading part of Sunday's paper.
Then I went to bed....09:00

Up 14:30 to pee... and snack on a few cookies..
Back to bed...trying to sleep....off and on...
17:30 alarm...17:45 up 
Shower n dressed n ready.
18:19 in car, just Merry n me.
We talked a little about the party She attended the previous night which I really just don't want to hear any more about...and the 'incident' this morning... 
I forgave Her, and She agreed She would try to avoid 'doing that' again.

19:01 at work
19:07 'in' 
A very quiet night.  
NOt much to 'watch' for the night.
Nothing to figure out for the morning.

02 March, Wednesday, Diary

at work
SO, about midnight, this woman calls, looking for a REP for an airport  departure in Atlanta for (the director of Boyz in the Hood)..at 07:15.   4 hours from now.  Would not take 'no' until I tried.
So, I tried.   Two car companies and two national rep companties. NO. The end.  Jeez.

Rather uneventful night thereafter.
But, I did not watch any 'tv'.
Out 7:51 and headed over to catch the train.
I had to buy a 'TAP' card, and load one trip on it...easy enough....on the train.
Had to change at the 7th St Metro...and got on the wrong train.
However, both the train I boarded AND the train I wanted to be on had as their first stop, Pico station, so I got off at Pico, and waited 5  minutes for my train.
Pulled into DelAmo at 905, where Merry was waiting for me, and home by 09:20.
I fed the cats, while She prepped MDM...chili and chips.
In BR1, we watched TRMS from Monday
1045 sleep.

Awake 1630
Watched "Guardians of the Galaxy" (Sunday)
 "Comic Book Men"  (Sunday)
TRMS (tonight's)
'It' came up, and we ...had sex... to Her satisfaction...
We watched 'Elementary'  (last Thursday)
Dinner...pork chops and rice...
Watched "Criminal Minds" 'live' while SUV was recorded...
22:00 sleep.


It's been a LONG time since I got THIS drunk.
Maybe, the last time was my wedding night....?

01 March, Tuesday Diary

At work, what a difference from Sunday night......
Watched  The Newsroom 2: 2,3,7,8,9.
Starting at 0530, tried to call Merry...twice...voicemail. Tried to call Stitch..twice...voice mail.
Gave up.
She called back when She heard the alarm from Her phone. The phone had been under Her pillow.
6:25 Out
6:26 in car with Her,  in a crappy mood what with the conversation the night before, and the futility in calling Her this morning,  and just ... in general.
7:11 Home.
Fed the dogs with almost the last of the dry food.
Split up the last can of cat food among the three very loud recipients.
Merry fixed MDM:  fried (poached, I think She said) egg on gluten-free toast..with provolone cheese...  I added some chips, and went to BR1 to eat
Without watching tv.
I ate, I went to sleep....  07:45

UP 10:30, pee.... snack on peanut butter, then ice cream.
13:30 up to pee again.
1600 kind of awake
1730 alarm
1745 up.
Only Stitch in the house, no side of Merry or Babyman.
I saw that She had been shopping, including a new box of cat food cans.... the Noisy Trio was satisfied for the moment.
Merry walked in, from more shopping, which included the renewal of my anti-D prescription from Wmart.   

We had an ugly argument, when She said She acquired something or other  (ginger ale, maybe) "for you."
That bugged me. It wasn't just for me. I'm not the only person in the house who drinks it. And I said so, probably in a nasty voice.
The cat food IS just for the cats.
The dog food IS just for the dogs.   
  That prescription IS just for me. I thank Her for that.
But the ginger ale is not JUST for me, so don't say it like it is.
The Girl Scout gluten free cookies ARE for me.  Thank you for that, Merry.

So
18:20 in car.
   Some kinda problem on the 710.  An RV was on fire?  
19:22 at work..19:25 in.
NOt much different tonight from last night.
Typical rush of last minute calls for tomorrow morning...coming in between 1930 and 2100.  

The cleaning guy in for the 2nd night in a row.
He skipped Sunday, because it was so busy around the office.
So he was here last night and again tonight.
Only matters, because I have to get up to let him sweep past my desk, and again to mop.

I told Merry, I'm gonna try ... if I'm wake enough ... to take the train home, Wednesday morning.  Tho, I had to get $2.75 from Her as I have a single dollar in my wallet, with no idea if the ATM would accept it.  
I bought e-cig filters earlier in the week...but I still haven't had to open the pack.  I'm speculating the filter I'm using will 'run out', after midnight ..Wednesday... but, just a guess. 

Six full days, bootless.



Now, it makes perfect sense.
