Tuesday already?
What happened to Monday? I know I was here working. Damn, Monday flew fast.
Weekend was good. I spent a good solid 10 hours working on the workflow database for United Health Care. Monique and I worked together on a lot of that on Saturday mapping out import files to database fields. It would be nice if her team would get me *all* the workflow input files and be consistent in their structures and follow the rules I set for these things (single sheet per workflow, single row headers, etc). But it's been fun and interesting working out new ways to handle their inadequacies.
Patriots!!!! Woo-hoo! 18-0! 'Nuff said.
Monique is at some sort of seminar just south of Hartford all week, so the company got her a hotel room at the conference center. It's about 15 minutes from my work. I'm going to stay there all week becuse it beats going home at 35 - 40 minutes one way, it will be a nice change of pace and because I get to spend nights with Monique instead of home alone.
Monique's birthday was yesterday. I remembered about 11:30 to call in a flower order. I had already bought her a lovely earring and necklace set. Chris and Amy were going to make her lobster for dinner, but we went out to dinner at Red Lobster instead because we had two reasons to celebrate.
Chris got a job yesterday. He'll be working for RR Donnelly, a printing firm in Danbury CT. Now that he's employed, he also got to fulfill the his agreement with Amy. They agreed to wait until he had a job to tell all the family that she's pregnant. So he made a lot of family calls last night. It was kind of funny to see how excited he was about it. Chris *HATES* talking on the phone.
Enough blather for one morning. I've got a long 14 hours of work ahead of me, so I should get to it. ,
