Episode 7: Still April 2014

April 4th 2014: Man oh Man! Did I coffee up today! Usually I don't drink anything with caffeine after 10 AM. Today I had an espresso macchiato at 2 PM. Over the edge! I was still up at 3 AM. Love it? List it? DO BOTH, DAMMIT! Just...
                                                                          do...
                                                                                  both...

April 5th 2014:  Doing a little yard work. I think it may be time for a gas-powered leaf blower. I am using 3, 25 foot long extension cords. I am 1/2 left-handed (i.e. semi-ambidextrous) in a world where everything spins for the right-handed. So that always has me spinning half of the time in the wrong direction. This presents big knot problems with 75 feet of extension cord and then I dropped my electric blower and the handle cracked. A little duct tape fix and I'm ready to go. It's a little tingly - is duct tape a conductor?

April 6th 2014:  1st round of golf. Still a little too wet to ride so we walked the 18. It did make my drives seem a lot longer

April 8th 2014: Back in NYC. Breakfast with Rachel. Lunch with friends at Smith & Wollensky. What a time warp! Used to work across the street at 800 3rd Ave. Had cocktails with another friend at Morton's. Double time warp...nice

April 11th 2014: Made a new business contact today from the Discovery Channel. She bought me lunch. Gave me a blanket. And a cell phone cover. Possibly some work. All excellent - although I did feel as if I met with my caseworker. Also stop back at the DIAGEO office to pick up a departing gift that I left behind. It was a shot ski (a shot ski is a ski that has holes in it to hold shot glasses. You and a group of friends would attempt to drink altogether without spillage). So, at the end of the day, I walk to Grand Central Station with a blanket, a shot ski and a skinny briefcase. I think it's all starting to click for me.
