Don Everly Turned 74 today

OK. It's starting to get a little surreal here. Last night I was picking up some German Sausage  at Paulaner's here in Singapore and the evening duet started with "In My life" --- the guy sounded EXACTLY like McCartney.  (Don Everly turned 74 today). And tonite I flipped my TV past the Chinese, Cricket, Soccer, Korean, Portuguese, Malay stations to a radio channel - and the first song was MOON RIVER by Andy Williams. Oh! and the fireworks for the River Hongbao Opening Ceremony and tomorrow is Chinese New Year's eve countdown.

My plans on losing weight with walking and healthy eating went south (60 miles) to the equator this weekend. Saturday was very good, Cranberry/Kiwi juice for Breakfast, Sushi for lunch andshrimp with rice noodles and veggies for dinner. But I followed it on Sunday with  a Sausage egg McMuffin for breakfast (nothing was open) Pizza for lunch ( Project Mnager sent out - what could I do?) and at night I hit the Irish/Chinese Pub and had a burger. - YUM - Better than Red Robin. Didn't lose much weight there.

On the work front - I finally got the 3rd party's responsibility into play and we got the vendor (from Germany) to actually look at their product  and provide fixes. They worked but showed another problem which they fixed? tonite.

The schedule shows us working straight thru this weekend and thru the following weekend. That will be 3 straight weeks of 12 hour (or more)  days. Not Healthy. I need to have a word with my PM.

Well, I have not heard any more from our team lead tonite so I'll maybe give him a call soon.
