What the heck happened in here? I thought I was only behind a day. As mentioned this week has been a bit crazy. We have several staff off on leave each of which is a valid deal, but together make things a bit tough. Yesterday we had an offsite which, if nothing else, was a slight break. I'm looking forward to Gear letting us know that tomorrow is Friday. Why? Because Saturday is the watch show in San Francisco!!

Well, that weekend came and went huh? The watch show is getting busier every year. I did get one watch but that jerk, Russell Crowe, posted a video which included this company and they were all sold out so I had to order it. Hope to get it in a month or two. Bonus getting it at the show was a discount and a free extra strap. Then the wife and I decided to watch a few episodes of a local restaurant review show to pick a new place to have dinner and had a pleasant dinner in the city. Kind of a split week for me. Wednesday midday I leave for Seattle to go teach a few more class and do some rounding. All well and good and something I enjoy. But what I thought was dinner with my old boss is now dinner with the hospital leaders. Not something I enjoy so much.

Updates:
Wife won tickets to the Giants game tonight. She's won them in the past several times, but it's always a Tuesday so we've turned them down so Drinks & Daves could continue to be brought to our fans. But tonight is Visa night so the company is giving us free hats or something and I figured it would be nice to go.

Wife still not so thrilled with the idea of a 3D printer. So the 2nd chair in the cigar lounge was moved out for it to go in there. Out of sight out of mind, right? RIGHT?? But then as I sat there, I wasn't so sure I wanted it cammed in there either. So more to come on that.

As mentioned, work dinner in Seattle is on Thursday, so that leaves my Friday evening free. I looked up cigar lounges and there really isn't anything there that's exciting. I found one, that wasn't exciting and then posts about their laws basically say you can't smoke anywhere workers would be exposed so no lounges. So I posted on Reddit for local knowledge. I was led to the same underwhelming location I found and...wait for it....Kirstin Pipes! I had no idea they were in Seattle. Their website doesn't mention a smoking lounge, but I've now see pictures of that and a HUGE classic car collection. I emailed them and they confirmed they have 2 smoking areas and a walk in humidor. That's where you'll find me Friday evening.

Enjoy the game. Or at least look up from your cigar shopping every so often to notice one is happening.

That’s mighty nice of you given I’ll be watching your personal arch nemesis. Goodness knows how a team with the coolest mascot could reach that status.
