Day 11 - October 21 '11

Day 11- October 21^st ‘11

Jamie has arrived! She is full of energy and everyone likes her. She is a 2^nd year returner and seems to have been missed by a lot of people.

I heard a cargo guy named Sully talking about a Euchre game at the coffee house. I got super excited and invited myself. Sully told me that Mel(anie) the loadplanner, Cassa ( my 1^st friend -also work in Shuttles) and Luke another Cargo guy were meeting at 8 pm.

The coffee house is nice and cozy. It doesn’t just serve coffee, but espresso, cappuccino, dessert liqueur coffee and a small selection of wine. It has a few computers and a shelf full of card and board games.

I arrived to find my group in the corner with a fourth guy already playing. I ordered a glass of delicious red wine called Diablo Rojas. All of them know the game by being from the north/central east. Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and New York. Since they had their 4 so far, Mel asked me to be her consultant since I was the only one who had played as recently as last week. Mel, Luke and I took the first game easily against Jim and Sully and Cassa. Jim and Cassa were headed to the bar to watch rugby, so Sully needed a new partner, and I sat in. Sully and I took the last 2 games. I was the only winner of all 3. (:

The Quonset w/ the dumpster is the movie "theater" attached to the coffee house

The cozy coffee house Quonset. Excellent coffees with or without liqueur embellishment and good selection of New Zealand wines.

It was the first time I’d been out since I got here and I had a lovely time. I got to know my coworkers a little better and they me. It was a nice evening.
