It's Friday...

Gotta say, this has been a pretty up and down week.

Work threw a couple of grenades my way, and for the most part I managed to duck and cover appropriately. I did get the company's website up and running to the satisfaction of the Sales Manager (http://www.executrain-sac.com). I got a pay raise and a decrease all in the same day (I won't go into detail on that one here). And I continue to receive high performance reviews from the students on the quality of my instruction.

I lost my wallet on Wednesday. Actually I think I lost it Tuesday afternoon. So after spending all morning Wednesday turning my apartment inside out (and actually cleaning up a lot of things to make sure it wasn't hiding), I got to go to the DMV. The upside? I was out of there in less than 45 minutes -- without an appointment!!!!!! How does that happen?

I did find time to spend an evening with my lady friend, and dispelled any notions that she would destroy me in Scrabble. I got a great steak dinner out of the trip! Gotta' love that! Oh, by the way - stay away from the frozen Cinnabon pastries if you have any delusion about any kind of facsimile of the real thing. Though somewhat tasty, they don't compare even 1/200th to the divinity that is a fresh Cinnabon.

Here's hoping this weekend provides the respite I need to keep from knocking over my brother's gun safe and "venting."
