It started Wednesday afternoon when I get informed right as I'm leaving work that an angry county commissioner is postponing awarding my company almost twenty million dollars worth of good work. This obviously started a firestorm within the office and led to a pretty intense two days of meeting and planning and devising strategies to change this gentleman's mind.
If all that wasn't enough I get hit with another strange thing that the City of Austin is undertaking that basically disqualifies contractors that are not minority. So I started to develop a strategy to work around that and had a few things in mind. One of those things started with a meeting with a mutual friend over a drink at Iron Cactus in Hill Country Galleria. So I'm walking into the Iron Cactus and I see this little bitty squirrel run off the patio of the restaurant and into the bushes. For some reason, the squirrel just looks a little off so I walk over to look in the bush it ran into. It was a huge rat that was just chilling on the Iron Cactus' patio.
Alright, so after all that got taken care of, gametime!!! I headed out to dinner at TNT Thursday night with Randall. We had a few drinks and ended up going downtown to have a drink or two. Ran into a couple of my wife's friends so we got pretty tore up. Ended up with that dude who sings "I wanna be a billionaire".Got back to the valet stand to get my car about 3 AM and the one little dude that works there has no idea where anything is. So, im stuck. Thank God my friend Courtney had agreed to walk with me so I was able to get a ride with her.
Friday work was rough after Thursday evening. Made a few calls, signed a few checks, looked over some figures and got the heck out of their. Went to bed early Friday after hitting Chuys with my wife and having a really nice dinner.
