(8pm) The trip to Helena was nice. (I love getting out on the hiway!)
I managed to make it to all the meetings I had scheduled and even found time to stop by Nikki's office and visit with her.
Erica stopped by here during the day and left a note and some stuff she wants me to drop off at Ross and Carly's. (It sounds like she has another computer project she needs help with.)
Helen (she works for the Judge) went home yesterday because of stress. (She is on medication for her heart and her doctor has now ordered her to stay home for awhile.) (She is in her late 50’s, funny, she just started piano lessons, and her and her hubby run a lot.)-(She is good people!)
Sharon's birthday is Monday. (She says she is going out partying with people from work. (Good for her!)) (I asked her how many this makes and she said to check the newspaper Monday and look for the ad her aunt and sister placed. (She put ads in on their birthdays and they are going to get even.))
(9pm) Quiet nite. (Nice!)

(5am) Happy birthday to Erica!
(7am) The people who work for the Judge say the reason he keeps working (he is in his 70's) is his family drives him crazy, and work is a way to get away from them. (Maybe his wife abuses him and he takes it on his employees?) (Supposedly when he caught his son beating his wife, he shot his son.)
The guy next door is working on his Ph.D. in psychology. (His thesis is on how students set themselves up with an excuse for failure. (e.g., he says he has done a lot of drugs, which always provided him with an excuse, in case he did badly on a test. (i.e., he could argue that he wasn't dumb or a failure, he had just partied too much.)) (He says, so far, he has found a gender difference. He says men tend to use drugs as an excuse and women tend to use things other than drugs.) (I wonder if that is really what the unconscious mind is doing then? (Maybe it’s that, with school, they are using the left cerebral hemisphere too much and need to switch to the right? (Men tend to have more trouble shifting to the right hemisphere (emotions, intuition, ….) and drugs are an artificial way to cause the shift. (Maybe that is the reason for the gender difference?)))))
(5pm) Work was busy. (Nice!)
Lauren says she is super spontaneous.
Two women at work were talking about withholding sex to manipulate their hubbies. (One said she would do that if she could figure out where he is getting it.)
