The SEEEEEEE HAWKS! rolling pep rallys started - at least those in the parking lot outside my living room - at 2:20 am. Screaming, shouting and car horn honking - easily heard from my bed. It would go for about 5 minutes and stop. And then go again in about 20 minutes. They were still going strong when I got home from the pool at 8. EDIT: I can still hear them out there but they are not now as loud as they were at 2:20 am.
Lovely. 3 more days - if they win, maybe 4 or 5. If they lose 3. In any event it will be over soon.
I'm off to Google this morning. Google in Kirkland which is about 30 minutes from here traffic depending. I'm kind of excited to visit a Google office even if it is tiny. It's a 3 building campus. My user test is 90 minutes long - I'll be home early afternoon. Then my brother and his tech crew have a training session on some new remote software and need me as a guinea pig. Fine by me. A full day!!
I really do hate the sound of horns honking.

Bed Saga Continued
Jan. 31st, 2014 06:33 pmSo tonight - at 6 pm - somebody from the bed store called to say my bed was here and ready for delivery. A week early. Nice but... I can't have it delivered on a weekend (which I have told them in person, on the phone and in email several times). And I have to know the delivery schedule ahead of time so I can reserve the elevator with the building manager who does not work on weekends.
So.... I can't get the bed this weekend. Monday is a giant question mark since I cannot imagine being able to coordinating the building manager and the store in time. So I told the store 2-4 on Wednesday and told the building manager (in email) Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. And meanwhile, I still have a week from Monday scheduled with both the store and the building manager.
I really hate shit like this. Ask the store who has to check with the delivery people. As the building manager, back and forth and back and forth. I'd almost rather they had not called and just left the delivery as is.
When I hear from the building manager (who, if he responds this weekend, will accumulate multi points with me), and he confirms Monday or Tuesday, I'll be sending a strongly worded message to Matt and the store manager asking them to make their best efforts to get me the bed on that day without further hassle. I suspect they will be happy to see the back side of my ass.
Bitch bitch bitch but it does look like while probably a big hassle, I will be getting the freakin' bed early. And that's nice.
