Not The Eric Stewart You Are Looking For: Episode X

Occasionally, I get emails intended for ANOTHER Eric Stewart. How do you handle these incidents? What should I do the next time I get one of these?

Hi Stew,

I'm doing ok... I can still feel I am crazy, but hopefully can pull it together.

Just had a meeting with my new boss and things seemed to go well, I think I am nervous but excited.

Should have called out, I'm doing nothing.        

Somethings I'd like you  to ponder:
Can you make either wedding? 6/6 or 6/20 - I think I am pushing for 6/20 (Random Lady's Friends Name)... While I know its not your fav activity, it means a lot to me and these people will always be my friends and while they can drive me crazy I love them a lot and its very important to me that you both can get along and find you great and awesome like I see you.
I don't know if I will be going to Chicago, we might do another city, so maybe we wanna go??

My Reply

Wow, I don't know what to say.  I certainly hope things work out with your new boss.  We all have those days when work is slow, but we just persevere and get through to the next day.

About the weddings.  As you know I am not big fan of weddings. Recently I have come to realize the idea of a big wedding is overrated. Why can't we as people enter into a relationship and then have a party just for the sake of having a party? As for your friends, they may be crazy and make you crazy.  I am sure I will be able to get along with them. If your friends can't find me awesome, then that is their loss.

Now, Chicago. I REALLY want to go to Chicago. I mean, it seems like a very exciting town and I would love to see some of the sights. Willis Tower, John Hancock Center, Wrigley Field.  Remind me again when you are thinking about going? What other cities are you thinking about instead of Chicago?

By the way, I think you sent this email to the wrong person, but I would still love to go to Chicago. Can I bring my wife?

Random Lady's Reply

HAHAHA I'm not even sure what to say... obviously intended for another Eric Stewart, but you seem to have a great sense of humor, thanks for responding so efficiently. Me and the other Eric Stewart are having a great laugh, you really had me fooled until the end.

Hope you get to visit Chi town with your wife!

Name The People

I was asked by a co-worker to create some Revit families from CAD blocks. They are 2D plan representations of people. I asked the requester if she wanted them named any certain way because this is what I saw.

A Weekend in the VA Mountains

This past weekend we took a trip to the mountains of Virginia. It is an area we have visited before with the Boy Scout troop, but this time we went without the scouts. I have been riding consistently again for nearly a year after I bought a new to me cyclocross bike. You can read more about that here . After more than 2,800 miles on that bike since last June, it needed some more work. The headset was pretty much shot and would not be repaired in time for our planned trip to Virginia. So Gina suggested that I get a new bike. I ended up getting a Giant Revolt Advanced 2 from Giant Wake Forest . We arrived at our rental house very early Saturday morning. 1:30am in fact. We found a place to stay that was literally steps away from The Virginia Creeper Trail . Saturday was to be a day we went hiking at Grayson Highlands State Park . We met Gina's co-workers at the park just after 10:00 am and started our hike. We have camped at this park before with the Boy Scouts but have never ...

This is what makes this day so special to someone like me.  I started my Saturday, April 13, 2019, at 4:00am. I arrived at the first store of the day, Schoolkids Records , there was already a sub...
