Business Trips

It looks like I’m going to travel with my new job. I’m looking forward to it. Rumour has it, my first ‘real’ trip will be Seattle. There’s some big software company there, a big partner of ours, that I have to go meet.

I haven’t blogged for a while. In fact, February was very sparce in blogging terms. 
It’s the job. It’s the commute. It’s adjusting to a change in lifestyle. Eek.
I get up at 6:20, I’m in car an hour later, another hour later I’m at the office. Between 5:30 and 6:00 I leave the office, drive for [...]
