Props to my wife for making our yard look 1000 times better. She has a motivation in the outdoors I can't conjure up at this point.
One of the best parts of my new job is having lunch together each day. We have a staff chef that prepares a simple meal that we all partake in at noon each weekday. If you're there on site the expectation is to be in the dining room at noon sharp or face the wrath of chef. Its great to gather as a staff so regularly to fellowship.
I have gotten permission from a local Atlanta police precinct to do ride-a-longs with the officers. Oh the stories I will glean from that. As my Uncle Randy says, we'll be out busting some scum. Though I believe that downtown Atlanta may be a little more intense than Winfield, WV.
I've found this troubling issue. When you sit down to do necessary correspondence via phone calls or email, it creates a lot more work. Its a lot easier to not talk to anyone because there aren't any messages to return. Also when you schedule meetings with people, I'm finding it creates a lot more work because you really should have some action steps coming from the meeting...unless you're Presbyterian and you meet for the sake of meeting, how convenient for me.
In the category of weird habits, I've discovered that I like to make notes, but I have trouble making notes in one spot. I keep making notes on different pieces of paper and in different notebooks, and then I'm stuck with all these random pieces of paper on my desk and in my bags. I'm not trying to do this. Its a subconscious thing. Any suggestions?

I can offer no suggestions, but I sincerely hope someone can help you because I'm tired of finding little scraps of paper with random chicken scratch on them! :-)
I tried to get in the habit of making notes all the time because I'm so forgetful. For about a year at King, I would notes on a piece of notebook paper and carry it with me everywhere, which would have worked okay if I hadn't started a new one every day. Obviously, it got pretty confusing, and I still ended up forgetting a lot.
For law school, I finally caved and bought a daily planner. It's pretty small, and I carry with me everywhere and write all of my random notes in it. It has worked very well, but that may not be a viable option with your job.
OK bye
