Third row, second from the top....

Back to work?

Sigh.

It beats working for Bill.

Looks like I'll be flying back and forth to SF for the next 8 weeks. 4 days there in the office - three back here in Indiana. Funny thing is - I did this at the exact same time last year for Discovery Channel when I was teaching a class here and flying in there to produce a series.

Except that this pays better. And they are putting me up in a really great hotel. And I can walk like the 1.5 miles from there to work. Or Chinatown. Or a really nice movie theater.

So I'll get to know that city.

And I start by flying out tomorrow.

I did learn yesterday that this stupid cough I've had for the past 26 days now is because I have a small bout of bronchitis. Yeah. Go figure. Never felt bad - just couldn't seem to shake the stupid cough. But they gave me some magic pills and I'm supposed to feel better in 5 days. We shall see.

Shawn - as much my brother as he his my friend - had his birthday yesterday. Turned 33. I've known him since he was 19? And now he is pretending to be an adult. We talked at 9:30 last night and decided to go see Beerfest. Got back at 2 am. Laughed and laughed - at each other more than the movie. Time marches on quickly. We used to be kids - and now we have kids. Sigh.

Got a call from STAR1's agent finally. And I ignored it. I'll call him on Monday. I am really a bastard. Have lots of calls to make - and I don't make them. They just pile up and I run afraid. Don't know what the avoidance thing is here in the last year - but I am getting to be a genius at it. And I need to stop. Really. Please help me stop.

So today becomes a laundry day. And a packing day. Cause tomorrow is a travel day.

And it's off to be another number cruncher...

TIME TO MAKE THE DONUTS......
