It's Saturday, but I go to work to assist Cindy with the office move. Before the movers arrive, I chat with Peter—the foreman (I think) of another move project in the office neighborhood. Movers from NorCal arrived around 9:00 am: John, Eduardo, Moses, Jesus, and a few other guys. They're smart, speedy, and careful—three great qualities in movers. John says after about an hour's worth of work that our move is one of the most organized he's seen in a while. The move goes as planned, and they finish around 2:00 or 3:00. I take a lunch break: Panda Express, chow mein, orange chicken, mixed vegetables. My fortune: Soon, a visitor shall delight you. Back to work: I have 12 computers to set up. The cluster of 4 in my office takes the longest, and as I finish that set I realize that some of our network connections aren't working as expected. The others go quicker—again, most don't have network. I leave Joel's to do tomorrow when I return with my car to pick up the bookshelf I bought for my office. When I get home, Patrick has ordered pizza and salad from Seniore's. We eat and then shower. Today Patrick had lunch with Travis, then met with Aaron.
