And Thu

The weekend is almost here, great! Got an email from my mom, they are at the beach, must be nice. The weather continues to be kinda cold, mostly because of the wind. Work was fine. Heating up some bread, I am starving. I may go out later on, we'll see. Tue night was fun, stayed out till 2:30 am or so.

I was on 57th St earlier today and saw they are already putting up the Xmas lights, they look so nice. Also, Macy's was playing with some giant projectors on the side, on Broadway and 34th, they looked cool. When I walked by Jiusseppe's pizza, almost had to get some, but ultimately I resisted

Wed

Met up with Chip and Fran for dinner tonight. We ate at this little Catalan restaurant in the West Village, called Ametller. Very nice food, delicious. Prior to that, I stopped by their place and watched the pics of their trip to Barcelona. I sure looks like they had a great time.

Got a couple more emails from Harri about the Spring trip. Also some txt's from Suki.

Probably not staying up too late. I think I got a sore throat from the chilly wind this morning.

BofA

Wow, BofA was super-quick to replace all of MBNA's systems, communications, processes, etc. But, as it turns out, they were too quick. They are sending MBNA customers to the bankofamerica.com website, which is (a) barely able to keep up with the load, and (b) fails to respond to account detail requests after you login (it generates a URL error.)

Very weak and disappointing first impression from BofA. They should have taken their time and guaranteed everything actually worked before cutting customers over in a rush to a broken site.

Tue

Agh, burned by bread again

Wore a coat for the first time this morning. I think it took me longer last year, it wasn't until well into Nov. Although it wasn't that bad, and it still isn't, like 50 F or so.

Got emails from Harri and Jordi. We may do Scotland instead of Iceland is Spring. Better weather, easier language, etc. Jordi seems to be doing quite well, not sure he works too hard , golf, gaming, kayak, scuba diving, etc.

Business lunch was decent. The rest of the day was long, but it's what I expected.

So, I guess it's not that late. I may step out and hang out for a while, we'll see. Feeling way awake.

Misc

Minor updates, I reduced the size of the Archive in the navigation to 6 months (it was becoming too long a list), and added a My Movies section with a permanent link to my collection.
