The NIGH****CHMAN - Tuesday 11/10/09
Macon is doing fine in the house so far. We will go a couple of more days before making a final decision, but right now it looks like he is staying.
Just so you know, you need to TAKE YOUR VITAMINS & SUPPLEMENTS and make sure you get your daily allotment of PROTEIN.
If you are new to the board, this link explains what the NIGHT WATCHMAN is (if you are interested). Otherwise, just read on, you will probably figure it out anyway.

I was trying to post to you last night when I fell asleep with my laptop on my legs. When I woke up and read it, it didn't make any sense and I was too tired to try to start over so I just went to bed.
I still haven't found my stride. The commute is getting a little better because I've been working later. I still haven't figured out a good time to go in in the mornings to minimize my travel time. Right now, I just feel like I'm working and sleeping.
I had a great and productive day today. I've rewritten all of our marketing collateral and been working on the strategy for a new product launch. It was supposed to launch in January, but there's a reason to release it next week if we can pull it together in time. We've got a go/no-go meeting on Thursday afternoon to decide. If it's go, I'm in San Antonio next Wednesday to launch it publicly.
That's about it for me. Sorry to hear about the need for a car repair. We still haven't gotten Michael's car in from the accident we had two weeks ago. He needs to call that lady's insurance and find out where he can take it up here for repair.
I'll try to stay awake for a bit. Prayers for all who need them.

If I were lying, wouldn't my pants be on fire?!?
Went to a benefit dinner for Harrison (the boy on the tennis team who needs a new heart) tonight. OMG...they had double the expected turnout!!! It was so nice to see people come up and hand them a $50 bill and said, "here, we just wanted to donate"! Dinner was $10 a plate so we bought five and donated the same. While we were waiting in line for almost an hour and a half (it was sooo worth it though) one of the ladies grabbed the microphone and said Harrison was out of surgery after having the defibrillator implanted (a temporary solution) and they were closing him up as of then but so far all looked good for that part. How scary. The boy is only 16. Just breaks my heart that anyone has to go through that, but a kid..geez. They had family members and close friends taking still pics and video so they can show him how crazy it was there.
No phone yet....I'm still holding out. She'll figure out it will be detremental to her by hiding it because one of these times she will have forgotten something and will try calling me to have dear ol' mom come to the rescue and bring it. Wellllll, if "dear ol' mom" cannot be contacted because SOMEONE hid my phone, maybe she'll cough it up. The possibilities are ENDLESS of where she could have hidden it. Just don't understand her thought process. I know she's done this before with her sister's things so it is TOTALLY within her capability to do so. I swear...(shaking my head). No usage on it so that's why I say she has hidden it. Now it is dead so it wouldn't matter. If I find it, it will only be by stumbling upon it! V is so mad because she really thinks her older sister snatched it too. WAY too many things Heather has said which raises suspicion!!!
Ok, gotta start on lunches...
