6:30 Get up. Normal routine. Laundry. Three loads! Called Tahoe 12-18" new snow. Called Henry K to tell him next Friday was going to be our day to go night ski. Finish cleaning up after Extra Hands. Read WSJ about arresting 3 top officials at Goldman Sachs & Kidder Peabody. What is "insider trading"? Who can do it? Just securities industry officials who broach customers confidence? Or can I based on knowing when prodcuts will come out, or other big news? Change sheets. Read Doug Casey Predictions 87. Big bear on real estate. And on stocks - pretty qualitative but interesting, though brief. Make & eat lunch. Replace old Jockey shorts with 9 new ones. Throw out the old ones. Threw out all white socks with holes. So clothing is much better now. Finish Casey, miscellaneous sections. Do yesterday's & todays mail. Take out garbage. Water plants

1:45 Go get ski bag. Notice that Henry K's boot rack fits my boots, but I need a wing nut which I got from City Peoples Mercantile. Skis fit ski bag. So all I have to carry are ski bag, boots, ski clothes bag and other clothes bag...Not that much.

2:45 Mom calls, snack.

3:00 Go to work a while. En route, I wonder why I'm going:

1) I'm not going to do progress report since I can do one Monday after I return and that will be more upbeat since I'll be getting back into it Tuesday

2) Today must be a day off technically as far as schedule is concerned, so it looks funny if I go in just for a short while. Only bad thing is I should've told 'em. Since I did Saturday type stuff today and I'm taking whole weekend off in Tahoe.

3) If I go in I may get bad news or bad vibes if I tell Tony keyboard stuff won't be completely done this week.

4) The coding is all done, so I feel free of it. There's nothing for me to gain by going in.
