Another Workday - Almost All Day

I oversleep again but this time because I did not call for a wake up call and failed to set my Blackberry alarm correctly. Have to rush a bit but not too bad. Got my laundry ready, ate breakfast, and arrived at the office only 15 minutes late.

And speaking of laundry, and not to be politically incorrect, you have to love a Chinese laundry. The shirt that I reported was on it's way out the other day, well it looks to be back in. Looks like they got the stain out. Of course the shirt may fall apart tomorrow, but the stain is gone.

Our training session this morning went pretty well. I made a mistake but it gave us a chance to get online with Joe P. and trouble shoot the problem. Kinda fun doing that kind of work from half a world away.

Of course lunch was again at the Sogo food court. Rice noodles and beef for me. I don't think the noodles had much taste at all but no taste is much better than bad taste. No shopping or walking today as I need to get ready for an afternoon training session.

The air quality continues to deteriorate today. It's beginning to look ugly out there. Buildings some distance away are beginning to disappear. Heck buildings two or three blocks away are beginning to disappear.

The afternoon session with the team goes well. They are hungry for information and they absorb as much as I can give them.

Evening is the theater. So to speak. The Chinese Acrobatic Troupe in a historical theater. Very entertaining. Really enjoyed it. Terry took me. We had a relaxed dinner before hand which allowed me to dig out some information I'd been wanting to get. A pleasant evening .

Back to the hotel. Al little work. A little blog. A little reading. Lots of sleep. And what I said earlier about the Chinese laundry I may have to take back. I'd worn the shirt again so sent it out to be cleaned today. There was a note attached when it came back that they couldn't get the stain out. What stain? Well the shirt is folded neatly for the trip home. I"ll wait to find out.

No picture today. No time for pics.
