Things Happening
Dec. 2nd, 2009 02:03 pmAdam is not happy in China. His laptops are still stuck in customs. The job starts on Friday. He hasn't been outside his hotel, except to eat at the American Subway restaurant across the street. He is doing everything in his mortal power to make sure things go right, but there is only so much he himself can do. He has contacted various people in his hotel, in customs, at FedEx, etcetera. His boss is doing the same. The client has been informed and understands the problem. But it is crazy. Frustration does not begin to describe it.
In the meantime, I have a Maneki Neko statue (aka Beckoning Cat, Welcoming Cat, Lucky Cat, Money Cat, and Fortune Cat). It is sitting next to my laptop, and I hope that maybe rubbing its upraised paw might send luck and fortune to Adam. Or something like that.
Also, Adam has a fortune cookie. The fortune says that financial hardships would soon be over. We plan on using the numbers on the back of the fortune to play the lottery. It couldn't hurt.
My back pain has not relented much, but the dose of Soma I just took is helping somewhat, as is the yoga stretching.
It is raining and chilly and depressing outside, but inside the house I am warm and comfortable and keeping myself in good spirits.
