We broke for lunch around 3:30pm and went to a placed called the Natural Cafe ( i think that’s what it was called ) they had a bunch of healthy sorts of things. It was pretty good, however one item they had on the menu was a Tofu Hot Dog, i almost ordered it just so I could see it.

Back for a couple more hours of work, and then we headed out for dinner at a place along the water in a harbor. ( It’s hard to get one’s bearing when it’s dark out and you’ve never been there before. ) I had a really good bowl of clam chowder and some hallibut.

We drove around a while, went up state street ( upper and lower ) and then i headed back to the room to crash.

One rather surreal thing was at about 6:15 I was working and the door opened and about 10 mentally challenged people came in. The ones that looked at me looked a little confused, most didn’t pay any attention, the proceeded to clean the entire building i was in and then left. It couldn’t have taken more than 7 minutes, very odd.

I need to figure out a way to do proposals better/faster I have a helluva time getting them done in a brief enough period of time. ( well brief enough for my tastes ). I want them to be accurate and well thought out, but it’s hard sometimes to spend a lot of time on something that you know is going to be shopped around and end up being used to get some other guy to go cheaper.

It was kinda nice to spend some time just driving along looking at the sites, heading south looking at the ocean stopping to look at the water for a bit, having a leisurely lunch, getting into town towards the end of the workday and spending a couple of hours getting some work done.

Hopefully I’ll have more interesting things to say tomorrow..but don’t hold your breath
