I was in a class, or attending a seminar, on the top floor of s 4-5 story white building. the atmosphere was very informal and I knew a lot of the people there. the conference room we were in only really had 3 walls and where the 4th wall should have been it opened up to a hallway with some roof supports marking the edge of the room. the carpet/decor was dingy brown sort of like the carpeting etc on the older BART cars.

the meeting broke up and we were gossiping. I knew everyone there because I used to work with them; so we started gossiping about absent people. someone was pregnant and the rumor was she would name the kid Orlando regardless of gender. I said, "well better than Armando" and we all laughed in that viscious catty way and started talking about Armando that I knew in college, who had the big hair, and how part of his problem was that he was stuck with that name. then it flashed on me that the name really did drive a lot of his obnoxiousness.

there was a security camera in a corner of the room, near the front; the corner to the left of where a podium would be, the same wall which wasn't a wall. all our laughing had some sort of shrill quality to it from nervousness about the camera.

we went downstairs and I really had to go to the bathroom. I asked if there were any bathrooms and they said yah, but they are in an adjacent trailer. just ask Percy (I may not have this name right). I went and called her Mrs Percy and she got really mad. don't ever call me that, it's Ms Percy or just Percy to you.

the trailer was to the left of the entrance as you went into the building. it was brown like almost all temporary construction trailers and was perpendicular to the building.

one other guy had to go to the bathroom too. {I think this is a natural side effect of sitting in a long boring meeting drinking coffee.} anyhow we went in the trailer. the door to the trailer was on the end away from the white building. once inside it seemed to me that the long axis of the trailer was now parallel to the main building. there were two bathrooms; the farther one had one of its walls a mottled glass like a cheap Home Depot shower door that indeed separated it from a shower, which had a separate entrance. I ended up in that bathroom. the other guy asked me if I was okay with it because someone could sort of see me through the glass. I wasn't really but I was about to make use of the toilet when I realized the lid was up and the bowl was totally totally full, one more drop and it'd be overflowing, and not with clean water either, euw euw. I stopped myself but somehow got some of this water on my pants anyhow. I left the bathroom and the other guy looked at me funny.

we went across the property parking lot, to the next lot, and across it to another building. it was roughly the same size but I don't know any other details. I guess the next session of the class or seminar was to be here. the last one was at Apple, and this was Microsoft. some of the people in the class changed as the Apple folks went back to work and the Microsoft folks took some time to attend. I was confused as to where the class was. they started talking about the 'mortuary' which was how they referred to part of the top floor. I thought it was really weird as that was how the Apple folks referred to the location in their building. those of us who had been in the first session talking to the new folks to compare what was similar between the two environments. turns out not a lot was different.

there was more (like a hands-on type part of the seminar) but it faded quickly upon awakening because of my puppy.
