Not today. The neighbours sold or gave away their dog. The neighbours are nice enough, the dog was a friendly big black labrador. But my neighbours are no people fit for a dog. They could not handle him. He'd be barking all the time. Eating everything in the house. Their reaction to him was never clear enough. They'd ask him in an insecure way, with sigh, if he would please stop. I felt sorry for the dog.

Kid next door does not seem to miss him. I hope the dog got a home where he can be what he is, an adorable labrador with people who are clear and good with dogs.

I don't get that with people either, they expect the dog to understand their language better than their tone of voice. Tone of voice says everything. Then, I would probably be just as ignorant had I not read up on body language and tone of voice. What category would tone of voice be under? I guess that would be speech. :dunno:

My kick-ass project manager talked some sense into the IT department, forcing them to get a new laptop to me by Friday.  :headbang2:

Awesome. I'd like one too. ;)

That is indeed something good. :)

Today I got to sleep in. Really needed it.

I got a new laptop the day before I left on vacation as well.  A Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon.  Not sure how it compares to the market, but seems generations better than what I had been using.  2.5 lbs and 16 mm thick.

I don't know how she did it but the new laptop is being readied and I had a chat with one of the IT guys earlier today on what software I need on it. She's one of the most efficient project managers I've ever had. Plus, she can be very scary.

  This actually happened yesterday, but ... I was really on my game at work.  I got so much done!
   So efficiently, and in my best detail-oriented style.  I approve of the way I worked yesterday.  8)

  I had a leftover half-sandwich that made a great breakfast.  Chicken salad with dried cranberries.  :2thumbsup:

That sounds lovely.  Made chicken salad Thursday.  The PR had some last night on a sandwich.  I'll have some at lunch.
