I'm sorry to bother everyone, but I dropped by briefcase in in the reception, and it spread my things all over the place. I thought I found everything, but I'm still missing two important papers and a bottle of pills.

If anyone finds them, would you be so kind to inform me?
I really need those pills papers.

It's been far too busy lately. It seems we have a lot of work to do with the new company bought up and all the employees that need to be relocated. I think I'll need to go and talk to Komamura-san later today.

It's very, very cold outside. I almost wish I brought another scarf to work. I'm longing for summer.
It's always nice to be able to work with an open window and the birds singing outside.

...that reminds me. If anyone finds a little note with phone numbers on it, that's mine.
Seems I dropped it while going through my pockets for a coin to use in the vending machine.

Oh my, did you all hear that? I truly hope no one is hurt. Unohana-san?
It's been a while since something exploded over there. Last time we had to evacuate.
I hope we do not have to go that far, this time?

Yare, yare... explosions, and it's still snowing outside.
Rather eventful start of the new year, don't you think so?

Notes for the day:

08:00 - Meeting
10:00 - Finish the year-end report and mail it to Ishida-san
11:00 - Meeting
12:00 - Lunch
13:00 - Continue with the files that built up during my absence
15:00 - Archive the finished files

There's probably more, but these are the important things.

Kotetsu-san, Kotsubaki-san, please find the files on the Korean company for me?
I'll need it before the second meeting today, if you can find it.

Oh, and thanks to the maintenance for putting salt on the pond bridge.
It looked like it could be rather slippery otherwise, in this weather.

The party really was wonderful, and I hope everyone had a good time?
The decorations were lovely and I was happy that the music was not too loud.

It is rather interesting to see ones colleagues dressed up like that.
Everyone truly looked their best. Unohana... she... the dress...

Today, I will be unavailable for an hour after lunch due do another medical checkup.

I'll be expecting some letters later today.
Please make sure they are delivered to my office at once.

Everyone seems quite excited about this company party on friday, and I hope we'll all have fun. It's been a while since we had a company part here at SSI and it would be great to meet some new faces.

It as quite a terrible storm the night to today. When I stepped outside this morning, the large tree outside my apartment building had lost several branches. I'm glad they didn't hit anyone.

Kotetsu-san, I will leave some papers on your desk. When you are available, please put them in the safe.

Kotsubaki-san, I'm expecting a visitor later. Be so kind to alert me when they arrive; I'll need some time to gather my head files.

If anyone stumbles upon this, please leave it with my secretaries. Seems I've misplaced it.

( Private )

Saa... I'm so happy he's alright and back in action again. The company really wasn't the same without him, was it?

How is everyone doing on this rainy friday? Terrible weather, isn't it?
I think I got wet all the way into my skin just after stepping out of the taxi, and I was wearing an overcoat! Had to put my socks and suit jacket out to dry when I came into my office.
These are the times long hair is truly a chore - I look like a drowned rat.

Two important meetings today, and a business lunch with the vice-president of that Korean company dear god, Shunsui, tell me you have not slept with his daughter that I just cannot remember the name of. In fact... I cannot even remember his name.
Oh my... that's a problem.

Kotetsu-san, Kotsubaki-san, get me the dossier, please. This is embarrasing.

Of all the people ending up in a hospital due to a heart attack, Yamamoto-sama would be the least likely candidate in my mind. That man has always been healthy and strong.
I hope for a quick recovery - we truly need him around here.

In other news, I have another meeting with a big client today. I hope it goes well.
I will take my leave for the day after that meeting, though, since I promised my sister to babysit. Again.

Unohana-san, do you have any tylenol? It seems I'm out.

These first few days back at work has been lovely. It's so nice to see everyone again.
But my, does work build up during vacation time. There's a lot to finish.

I do wish I had something better to look at ouside my window then a parking lot, though.
Did the architect forget the other side of this house? Since the front is so beautiful?

Notes for the day:

08:00 - Meeting
10:00 - Signing reports
11:00 - Meeting
12:00 - Lunch
13:00 - Doctor's appointment (Unohana-san, is there something I should bring?)
15:00 - Archiving old reports from the development sector to Kurotsuchi.

That would be the important things I have to do today.
Then there is all the rest, of course.

Kotetsu-san, would you and Sentarou be so kind to remind me of this?
Also, please hold my calls during the meetings and the appointment.

Hmmm....what to eat for lunch?
