Weird weird day yesterday. Traveling late does not agree with me, that's for sure. I was out of whack all morning and my stress level was at ll. I was pacing around in the morning waiting to leave. We left around 6, dropped me off at the train at 6:15, and I boarded one around 6:20. That was an adventure to begin the day. I get on the train which says AIRPORT on the front, but the inside signs and the recording were listing stops the opposite direction. I freaked out at first. Like wait, did this thing change directions when I wasn't looking? Am I actually going the right way? What's going on? Luckily I know the stops and could tell we were going the right way, but imagine being a tourist and having it say one thing on the front but another inside. Confusion city. I got to the airport around 7:15, got through security, and sat in the lounge until 9:20. Boarded my flight on time and landed at SFO around noon.

Got my car and met the kid for lunch. That was a nice time. We enjoyed a nice sushi lunch. Really good place. A bit of sushi fusion. We had an octopus carpaccio, smoked aji, and a sashimi platter. Good stuff. Got to the hotel around 3 after sitting in traffic, and took care of ironing and the like.

Around 5 I got some bad news. The site I use to grab most of my stuff was shut down by the government. This makes for a rough time in getting new stuff. My buddy is putting together a tutorial for me (which you need to resend because your mail server blocked it) on alternate options, but what a blow. They seized all the domains. Fuck cable companies and broadcast tv.

Had dinner with a friend around 7:30. She was looking for some technical advice too and I did a demo for her on one of the products we recommend. She works for a non-profit which means it will be hard to get a budget but she was impressed with the product and recognizes the need in her organization. We had a nice steak dinner, late, but nice. Okay, late for me. I am old and tired.

Went to bed around 10. Did over 11,000 steps again yesterday. I like the motivation this Fitbit provides me. Walked 5 miles according to it yesterday. Not too shabby. I was also 300 calories under the limit too. Pretty good. Caught some good pokemon including two new ones.

The only downside to yesterday is I may have to go straight to another client. I haven't told B yet because it's not confirmed, but I may have to leave here Saturday, drive down to SoCal, and teach down there. We'll know more today.

Now it's time to have breakfast and do the do.
