Its now Thursday, and I have finally gotten used to the time changes. I keep my watch on eastern time, 10 hours later than there. 13 hours different out in Vegas where Cindy is...so lets see, if it is 8:00 am here on Thursday, it is 10 pm wednesday in Lansdale and 7:00 PM wednesday in vegas. Breakfast: beef stroganoff, some kind of fish cutlets, and some kind of crepe somethings. and of course, salami, ham, something they call bag bacon, (mostly fat and smoked not fried), jerry one of the boys that works here from vegas thinks it is whale blubber. Its not that bad, but, it LOOKS that bad. And of course cheese slices etc etc., the veggie tray, mostly cucumbers and peppers, altho the tomatoes aren't bad. Meeting at 9:30 and still can't work. things are still in customs. Coasted thru the day just organizing and trying to stay awake. Lunch here consists of you guessed it, the salami/ham/cheese thingy. A small dish of some salad, cole slaw somedays, chicken salad with cucumbers chopped up on other days, I like the salads, and then they bring out big bowls of soup for the tables. Chicken noodle, chicken rice, had borsht once, cabbage soup. It was actually pretty good. It was red tho, but good. Soups here are very good. If I didn't know any better I would think that everyone here is on the atkins diet. Meat with every meal. Hopefully we can work soon. Oh and I found out today that my laptop does NOT have the right software to play movies. Brought 15 movies with me and can't watch any of them. Oh well, I AM catching up on my reading.
