We didn’t get a lot of snow, neither this morning nor this evening, although as of right now there is a light dusting on the ground and a lot of slush on the driveway. We had thunder and lightning earlier, and little pellets of sleet that covered my car. You know, nice spring weather.
Anyway, not a particularly exciting day. I went over to the new building this morning and got my photo ID car printed. We’ll need them to get in and out of the building, which seems easy enough, but will take some getting used to. We don’t have IDs at our current office, nor really much of any security beyond a pass-coded door, in our current office. Although we do have the Gemological Institute on the second floor, and they have security badges and private guards. And, of course, we also have the ever-present — including all this week — fire alarms. Yesterday, they said it was because they were “doing welding in the boiler room.” but isn’t that exactly what somebody planning a jewel heist at the GIA downstairs would say?
(Did I mention that one of the more exciting things I did while in Boston recently was re-watch Ocean’s 11 on cable?)
