Day 20,262
Its been a long day, and I’m looking forward to a good night’s sleep tonight. Had several conference calls today, and lots of stuff going into my brain. I don’t know that I’m going to get to two hundred words today, to be honest. I say that regularly, but by the time I spew out …

Day 20,261
I really hope I got the date right. There’s a possibility I got the total number of days that I have lived wrong. So sue me. No, wait, don’t. I would prefer not to be sued. I spent a considerable chunk of my Thursday listening to a meeting. I would emphasize that I listened… did …

Day 20,260
It’s Wednesday night in rural Douglas County. The temperatures around here have barely reached into the thirties, but it looks like tomorrow will see forty degree weather for a few days, maybe more. I spent the day tending to regular, mundane work stuff, reading, preparing, reading some more, sitting in on a conference call, then …

Hey gang, old fat Grampa Bob sharing with you the issues of the day here in Lawrence, Kansas on this fifth day of March, 2019. KU is about to tip off against Oklahoma. KU is still in the running for the Big 12 Conference championship, but to be honest, I think that ship has sailed. …

Day 20,258
It’s a rather cold Monday night in rural Douglas County. My beloved has to be about to pass out with the hours she’s put in the last couple of days. I know she was seemingly up half the night last night, and then gt up at four o’clock in the morning to finish up her …

Day 20,257
Might be about time for me to put the leftover pizza away. Lisa is working on some NIH reviews that she has to get done in the next ten hours. We all overlook a deadline from time to time, and she has had so much going on, it’s little wonder she has to work on …

Day 20,251
OK, I didn’t get my entry written yesterday during the day, but if there was ever a time for me to throw out my self-imposed “12-hour” rule, this is it. Microsoft is a big company. Microsoft does a lot of great things. Taking in all that Microsoft has to offer is like drinking from a …

Day 20,250
It’s about ten until noon on a Sunday, currently sitting in lounge space at MCI – Kansas City International Airport. Terminal B. My flight was supposed to leave at 7:00 this morning, but due to a mechanical issue, there is currently a 12 hour delay, and the hope is that this bird will head into …

Day 20,256
Starting over on my WriteChain. I had done so well for almost two years, then the new job happened. I wrote a couple of blog posts, and left them in my drafts folder for a couple of reasons. One of the important reasons is that my wife has asked me to avoid posting anything that …

Day 20,249
Tomorrow will be the first day of the rest of my life. I catch an early flight and head up to the Microsoft home office in Redmond, Washington. It’s going to be an interesting ride, both the flight and the beginning of my life with my new employer. I’ve got everything just about packed up, …
