CWH

All day yesterday I had a caffeine withdrawal headache. No amount of acetominiphen worked. And since it's that time of the month, I couldn't have ibuprofen or any other NSAIDs. I did some work, but mostly trying to reconfigure a new way to compile the data in front of me. It was so unorganized it hurt to look at. Then lunch time rolled around and I took a walk. The rest of the company had gone to the Giants game so it was all quiet. I hate baseball so I wasn't missing out on anything.

I started heading towards Union Square since I was to see my ob/gyn for a vaccine injection. I was chatting with B on the the gmail chat and he asked if I wanted lunch. This was around 1:30 and sure. Why not? How forgetful I can be about staying away from certain people. Oh well. After the doc's I ran right into an old coworker. I walked with him a bit and he filled me in on things. He gave notice to the company that day, they were bought out by Skull Candy a month ago & lots of people were let go. Go figure. It was good to see him & chat. I got his info & we parted.

Then I went to a bench at Union Square and sat in the sun. It was warm, beautiful, and I felt like a happy lazy bum. B came and we got lunch. We ate at Yerba Buena and just laid on the grass for an hour. It was idyllic. I thought about heading back to the office since it was 4pm and I had some time to kill before heading to the docks. B scoffed at that so I followed him around shopping. We went to the mall. Then I bounced at 5, as planned.

I pretty much kept to myself and B did his thing. You can tell he's quite the loner; that he's feeling a little odd shopping with me. I kept my space and distance. At the docks we sailed.... ahhhh. A perfect ending. Except I fell at the foredeck and landed on my shoulder. For a second I was numb with pain and could barely move my arm. Later I pulled out my flask of cognac and chugged. Gonna be a bruiser.
