Y5 D356

Slept incredibly well last night. Don't know what I did differently than the night before, but man I finally got a good night's sleep. I went to bed around 10 and woke up on my own at 5:30. Still three hours before I have to be in class, but it was a nice solid REM sleep.

Another non-excitement filled day yesterday. Did my teaching which included an hour interruption for an impromptu meeting with the company CIO. This is the second time in three classes where the students have asked their management to come in and hear me talk to make sure they understand the challenges being faced by the group. I am the hatchet man. The guy who says it likes it is. King Abrasive. Don't get me wrong, I am okay with this role. Because it positions us to come back in and do more work in the future. If a companies infrastructure is perfect, then I never see or hear from the client again. But if I can show them where they need to improve...

After class I took a drive. First I went to the walmart to get things for my class today. Some donuts and other trinkets. Then I found an Old Navy and bought a new shirt since the one I brought with me for yesterday turned out to be missing a button on the sleeve. I had to wear today's clothes yesterday. Meaning I needed an extra shirt for today. Not a big deal as it was only $25, but it was a bit of a hassle. On the way back to the hotel I grabbed Del Taco because it's Del Taco and I never get to eat at them any more. Got back, talked to B, watched Arrow, went to bed.

Today is the last day. I want to leave early in the morning tomorrow and be home before B goes to work which means I need to be in bed pretty early. I want to be on the road by 4. Up at 3, home by 8 is the goal. Another quiet night is in store for me. We don't have anything planned for the weekend which is nice. If all goes well it should be a good quiet weekend. I have one more week of training scheduled next week but then I get a real break for a few days. Very much looking forward to it.
