Thursday & Friday

The end of the work week was quite slow.  I was moving a little behind the pace I have previously set as a standard, and everybody else seemed to be as well.  There were a number of people out of the office for a long holiday, and I think the interns there should have as well.  After work on Thursday I went with Alejandra, one of my co-workers, to a hardware store to help her pick-up a lock for her bike, and to help her set it up.  I'm not sure if the design of the lock wasn't made for her bike, or if I was doing something wrong, but we couldn't get it to work just right.  She appreciated my help though, and it felt good to lend a hand.  The end of the work week had little to highlight, as temperatures were still quite hot, and the city as a whole was moving slower than normal.
