a dinner, and plans foiled
Sep. 23rd, 2009 01:57 pmYesterday night, my friend Yoko and I went to Berkeley's Dark Carnival bookstore, where, as a belated birthday present, she got me Stephen Baxter's Emperor, and where I got her Allen Steele's Galaxy Blues as an even more belated birthday present. We then went to a Thai restaurant and had a long wonderful chat.
The Bay Area's weather has been gorgeous, and was a reminder that people who live here truly are lucky, living in Heaven on Earth as they do.
Meanwhile, things are ok at the office. I haven't had a one-on-one meeting with the boss, and had been planning to first have one with my team lead, to make sure I wouldn't say anything to the boss that would be better left unsaid. Unfortunately, my plans hit a snag. My team lead is out for the next few days.
He dislocated a shoulder.
