Ducky Solo 2016 - Day 12

Work was busy but not too bad.

It wasn't too busy, but I made some mistakes here and there.  I was trying to fix them the rest of the day.

Not too many calls but in between the calls and fixing my mistake it took the whole day. GG.

I didn't actually leave the office until about an hour after work was over.

I went to the gym a bit and man there was bad traffic along the way.

I came home and did some house business stuff.

Leftover Tofu and Noodles
Salad and Avocado
 Watched Knights of Sidonia and ate my dinner.  The series is pretty good and I guess I will finish it.  I bet kitty won't like it though.  There is a lot of lost in space type situations.


More Shakes
Resumed may shake drinking.  Today it was a peach, half a banana, spinach, yogurt, and a cup of milk.  I added more milk and it was kind of more liquidy than before.

Plan to Fire Emblem up a bit later on in the evening.  Man today was tiring I hope I don't wake up so much tonight.  Last night it was too hot and sweaty.

Ducky Solo 2016 - Day 10 & 11

Day 10
Third day at home. Nothing happened.  Just woke up, ate breakfast, ate lunch, and played fire emblem.

While driving home, was minutes behind an accident.  Good thing I saw those digital traffic signs that said ACCIDENT AHEAD. LEFT LANES BLOCKED.  I stayed on the right side and zoomed pass the traffic.  The accident involved maybe 6 cars.  A bus was stuck behind them needing to exit at that exit.  GG bus driver and passengers.

Day 11
MONDAY MONDAYS.
It started slow, but picked up bad.  It was nonstop.  I realized one of my team members was out today and that caused me to get more calls than usual.  Besides that handled some tough cases, but otherwise okay.  I forgot to take a picture of my lunch, but it just consisted of the rest of the banquet dinner leftovers and some of my broccoli seitan mix with rice and a banana as a side snack.

I went to the gym after work.  I forgot how to get there from my work, but good thing I had the GPS.  I felt a little sore, but not as bad as the first day back at the gym.  

I got home feeling tired then got more house business talk to go over with my mom.  Answered texts from prospective tenants and talked to my parents more about business stuff.


Dinner

Avocado and Salad

Dinner was some stir fried egg with chashu my dad made with some leftover duck from the banquet over rice.  I only had about a quarter cup of rice with my protein.  I was originally going to make a shake, but I didn't.  I felt too full and wanted to work on the salad I bought.  Some of the salad was starting to brown, so time to eat lots of salad the next couple days.  I added avocado today because my avocado was also going bad.  First world problem of parents giving you too much food so the food you bought begins to go to waste...

Apricots

Cut up some apricots for fruit that I bought like a week ago.  Tastes pretty good, just ignore that I was too lazy to wash my bowl first.

Started to watch Knights of Sidonia on Netflix with my dinner.  Pretty interesting show.

GIANT SPIDER IN ROOM.  I am not going to sleep well tonight.  I lost it.  I was going to vacuum it, but it crawled up and into a gap somewhere on the frame around the closet doors.

Showered and finally able to play Fire Emblem.

Ducky Solo 2016 - Day 9 & 10

I forgot to do a post yesterday, so today will be a double.

I didn't take any pics so, it might be a short one.

Day 9:

I went to work.  It was an uneventful day, so it was very nice.

No difficult situations that I couldn't handle.

Bad luck incident happened to a coworker though.  She was sitting on a chair in our break room and the chair broke.  She was of medium build and not overweight at all.

Got me wondering how many of the other chairs were waiting to break.

I ate more of my seitan broccoli mixture with some scrambled egg and avocado.

Right after work, I drove back to SF since my father came back from his 2 month trip to China.

We ate dinner which was very simple with some side dishes including shrimp, some veggies, a fish, and a meat and tofu meatloaf thing.

Day 10:

Woke up early around 9 AM.  Thought my mother wanted to go to dim sum early, but she didn't wake up until around 10 AM.

I spent the morning looking up like camelbak like water reservoirs.  Plan to go hiking or something with friends on July 9th or so in Tahoe again.

Went to dim sum at a place I have never been.  Food was decent.  It was kind of weird though as over 60% of the server waitresses were mandarin speakers instead of Cantonese.  They would describe the dishes in English.  I think it was a restaurant tailored largely to Americans.  The food tasted pretty good though.  However, it didn't have any special signature dishes or items like other places do.

Playing more Fire Emblem today was good.  I got my kid army up and running weee.
Got to Chapter 21.  Hope to get to Chapt 22 by tonight.

I had lots of crab for dinner.  Yay.  I think I hate one whole crab's worth of meat, but I didn't eat the crab "butter".

Ducky Solo 2016 - Day 8

Yay working at home is always nice.

Today was not too busy and I didn't even have to put on pants fun fun.

I was going to play Fire Emblem, but a call came in.

Sorry, I forgot to take pictures of my lunch. I just ate some left overs from the business over rice.  Nothing fancy.

During lunch time I prepped some stuff for dinner:

Tofu and Mushrooms

I went to the gym after skyping with kitty for a bit.  Man I still feel sore from the weekend, but I powered through some.  I got on a squeaky elliptical, but was too lazy to get off and find another one.

Sukiyaki base with tofu, mushrooms, and shiritaki noodles
Dinner is ready

From the bag of Salad

Peach smoothies

Done

All smoothies look like barf if you leave it out too long

I finished watched Captain America Winter Soldier.  It was an entertaining action movie.  I do have to wonder what they are going to do in Avengers and Captain America 3 after all this stuff happened in the 2nd movie.  I guess I have to download those next.

Going to pack for SF because I will be staying at my parents for the weekend.  Dad is finally back from his trip to China.

Ducky Solo 2016 - Day 7

Today will be a short post.

Went to work and the pace was not bad.  I got some of my audio recordings of my phone calls critiqued and I think I got relatively minor issues to work on.

I accidentally left my phone on "Not Ready", aka short break mode, for an hour and a half.  I hope management doesn't pay too much attention to that.

Lunch I didn't take a picture of, but it was just rice with some of the broccoli and seitan mix I had. 

The office pretty much cleaned all the leftovers from last night.  I did see a little left over when I was on my way home so I just took it.

I also got a haircut today.  I think it looks pretty good.



Dinner. LOBTER LEFTOVERS.

I ate all the lobster I saved from yesterday with the leftovers from work.

SMOOTHIE

Gotta keep up with my nutrient smoothies.  Today I did a peach, half a banana, 3/4 cup yogurt, milk, and protein powder.  I did not taste any peach.  I mostly tasted the banana.  

Going to play Fire Emblem after surfing the web a bit. YAY.

Ducky Solo 2016 - Day 6

Woke up this morning at around 6:25 AM like my usual.

I ate some Raisin Bran with milk.

Wore some business casual today because of the after work business dinner.

Work was super busy today.  I almost felt overwhelmed with reports and phone calls.


Lunch
.
Today's lunch consisted of some veggie nuggets, rice, a quarter of avocado, and a fried egg.  Tasted alright like all my other vegetarian dishes.

I was not able to catch up at all.  I ended up working an hour after everyone left.  It was ok because I had to go to the business dinner by like 6:30 PM anyways.  This way, I would be done with my work before dinner time.

I got to the Chinese restaurant by like 6:20 PM and went inside.  Met some of the people there and had some chit chat. 

My boss ordered the dishes, but he wanted me to explain them to our Caucasian clients and coworkers haha.

In the end everyone like everything.

I believe our boss ordered the like $500 family dinner for 10 people.  I didn't take a picture of what was included, but here are some of the leftovers.  There was a vegetarian person and we ordered 2 dishes of stir fried grean beans just for her.  She was okay with whatever.

Abalone, Mushrooms, Bok Choy

Garlic Ginger Lobster?

Mushroom Noodles

Giant Clam and Snap Peas

Honey Walnut Shrimp

Stir Fry Green Beans

Tofu mushroom roll?, Jellyfish Salad, Seaweed salad, BBQ pork and Roast Pork

Peking Duck
There was also a bird's nest and crab soup.  The dessert was mango pudding with coconut milk.

Since the big boss had to fly out tomorrow and was not going to the office, he suggested I bring it to work tomorrow for people to scavenge.

Initially he suggested I just take all the leftovers home.  None of our other coworkers really wanted to take the leftovers.

I scavenged some stuff for my dinner for tomorrow night!

Lobster Claw

Mix of the veggie stir fry

People were too proper and didn't really want to eat with their hands for the lobster.  As a result, a lot was left over, so I took some.

Well that was a long day.  Time to shower and play Fire Emblem!

Ducky Solo 2016 - Day 5

Another long day at work to make up for the day I dropped Kitty at the airport.

Besides that it wasn't too bad.  I had time during the day to make some dental appointments so that was good.

I got home around 5 PM or so and proceeded to water the plants and surf the web a bit.

Dinner Leftovers

Peaches

For dinner I had more of my broccoli, tofu, and seitan stir fry.  It tasted alright.  
I had some peaches for post dinner dessert.


Finished product
Smoothies



 I made more smoothies to keep up with my protein intake even when I didn't go gym.  Today I made a mix of spinach, half a banana, berries, yogurt, spinach, and milk.  Tasted alright.  I think the banana really helps blend the protein powder in well.

Going to clean my desk a bit and then get to bed by 11PM and play Fire Emblem.

I am nervous for tomorrow night's business dinner thing.  Social anxiety to the max.  Sigh what did I get myself into.
