Friday

Felt like Friday, but was Tuesday. Routine day at work except for the boss² staff meeting, which was good but the usual suspects shut off the lights and the glare from the screen plus the aircon burned my eyes, had to keep closing them.

Lunch at hometown buffet because: lazy, did not want to eat much. They have a goodly variety of cooked veggies. Sweet corn was sweet.

Had some Italian reduced fat salami for a snack at about 4, keeping automation guy company with his late lunch.

Home, took a nap. Woke up at 8:30, shampooed some carpet high traffic places. Salami made its presence felt in dramatic fashion, good thing I was home and near my Immodium stash.

Been playing around on a Thai singles site, $70 for a membership which will last till my trip. Most of the women contacting me are ignoring my English/Thai note that I'm not interested in women with children living at home. And most of the pings are from women who are from the one part of Thailand which is not in my list of places I am interested in. They also have no way to turn off the "available for chat" feature, so I get to be rude. I did chat with someone tonight because she is from Sri Chiangmai, which has a special place in my heart. Her English is surprisingly good, she credits her Peace Corps high school teacher. But she was only 11 when I was in PC. Her photos did not grab me. Nice conversation, though.

Plans for tomorrow:
Work

High Finance

A week and a half ago, I went to a 7-11 cash machine (free for Credit Union members) and withdrew $200. It gave me a $100 bill plus the requisite 20s. Last night I went to the CU cash machine, deposited the $100 bill and withdrew $100. Wanted the 20s.
