If I do my mathematics correctly, then by the time I went home on Friday I had already endured 75 hours of work (M-F).  I essentially crashed Friday night.  Slept in a bit on Saturday with Decy joining me (yahoo !!), got a 2 hr massage, and then worked until early evening.  At 545pm headed [...]

17+15+17+1 (rounding) = 50.  The number of hours in the office for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.  However, I think I am now on the back side of this monster – at least for a little while.  Plus, yesterday which started off in “crunch mode” at 530am …. was a good day overall when I received [...]

Ah the challenges continue – I think that Chris and I are competing for “non sleep of the month award”.  After working 17 hours on Monday and going to work on Tuesday on 2.5 hrs sleep … I then worked another 15 hours and at 9pm went to the Whitehouse to wish Laverne Carter happy birthday [...]

The heavy workload is relentless.  I know and accept that I will never work a 40 hour week.  But, the non-stop work since I got off the plane from vacation seems a bit unreasonable.  There has to be a point in time where I am not loaded up so much that I have to work [...]

Same Stuff …. Different Day.
Ugh. What a very very hard day Thursday was.  It was pretty much a repeat of Wednesday.  Except that:  a) I didn’t get a final answer, b) I worked non-stop from 6am-830pm …. plus commute to/from work/home.
Thanks God it is Friday.
Really don’t know what to blog. Nothing happened except “work”.
Ciao ciao. [...]

Wednesday did not start out normally and it just got more challenging from there.  Woke up bright and early at my usual 315am.  But, because of a telecon with our VP in Houston, I was in the office by 445am making final preparations for the telecon review.  Review started promptly at 6am.  For the most [...]

As essentially all my readers know, I have lived overseas for quite some time … effectively continuously since 1996 – Yes, a very long time.  Keeping my wardrobe up to date is not exactly an easy task … not only are there language issues but more significantly there are “size and shape” issues.  In Colombia [...]

Another weekend gone – not really sure where it went.  Friday was a bit of a mess at work (trying to finalize year-end numbers) and didn’t leave the office until 1030pm.  Up bright and early on Saturday and was checking company emails – and realized the final results that were emailed to me after I [...]

Its Friday already and the end of my first full week back in Indonesia.  Its been an interesting week of ups and downs at the office.  When I returned to the office my folks had obviously done a lot of things right.  However, as circumstances changed/evolved they had not adapted as well as I would have [...]

So much to do and so little time to do it.  Seems like I don’t have any time to work at home on the PC (organizing pics, music, etc) as well as getting other electronics and finances, etc, lined out.  I really need a block of time (a weekend ++) but as mentioned before, last [...]
