6 34 pm pst [ my baby ]
I miss my diary. I really miss my diary.
I've got nearly a month's worth of photos to upload. I
have entries noted on scraps of paper that I'm sure got tossed in the
move. I'll try to do all of the back-dated entries and catch up, but
that's going to be difficult. Matthew and I are probably going to Germany
tomorrow.
I am a bit lost right now. I don't know where anything
is, so packing will be crazy. My expenses are all messed up because I
used to anally record everything in my computer (like the $17 I spent at
Cato's on the 2nd? and the $7 I spent at In-N-Out yesterday [technically
today, since it was after midnight]). I don't know where anything is in
our new neighborhood and we haven't gotten our phone book and have no
access to MapQuest, or anything else on the internet.
But back to Germany. Matthew found out today that he is supposed
to go tomorrow. So we are currently sitting in his office, though the
company had a mandatory nation-wide shutdown this past week.
8 01 pm pst [ moving right along ]
So, part of the whole hectic part of this past month is
that Matthew got moved to a different "group" at work and is supposed to
be moved again, so he's not sure who to report to. He's stopped trying to
get his internet access reimbursed. And this trip to Germany is for
someone other that his boss [it's for his potential new boss]. Matthew
called his current boss to make sure he could go only to learn the guy is
on a six-week sabatical. He didn't notify Matthew, or Matthew's former
boss who is now under the same guy. The whole situation is ridiculous.
Currently we are unable to book a flight for me.

today: I didn't write because my internet connection was not
working.
three years ago
today: I have a [probably absurd] notion that it is good for me to
use my left hand, despite being right-handed, so I go through bouts of
practicing writing with my left hand and I once tried to eat with
chopsticks in my left hand.
two years ago today: I woke
up at 6 30 this morning, so Matthew could make his flight back to Berkeley
in time to drive straight to work.
