comfort, company suggestions, even scripture !

I rarely talk about my work in this blog.. My personal life may be an open book.. But my work life is kind of private… I will say that sometimes i love my job.. And sometimes i hate it…
Today was the latter
Ps.. Just poured alcohol and boric acid on our friend katy and lit her on fire.. Cool, huh ?

Speaking of works of art, David and Jean are also part of a project to help restore that we damaged photographs from the actual disasters. For example they were down in New Jersey helping people Collect and repair precious photographs that were damaged by hurricane sandy.
It's a crowd sourced effort with hundreds of volunteers. The volunteers professionally photographthe damaged Photosm and then use sophisticated Photoshop techniques to repair them. Dave is quite a master at this.m Look at these before and after's
It was really nice spending time with Dave and Jean. David is one of my most trusted mentors though he hasn't been at Ibm for many years.
Come to think of it, I also had a nice, short conversation with one of my other trusted mentors, Kevin, today. It's always nice to go in for a checkup.
Whoops it's late again… I need to go to sleep.
big presentation Tomorrow wish me luck.

just past midnight.. and i’m about to go pick up gabe at the airport. He’s been in Spain all week.. can’t wait to hear his stories.. while he was gone, Diane and I had our own summer camp.. she went with me on a business trip, we ate out a few times.. we hung out in the pool and we watched movies.. it was awesome.. (she’s awesome)
last night we watched the movie ‘Cloud Atlas’ .. it was 3 hours long and was based on the book of the same name by David Mitchel.. It was amazingly complicated and twisted. 6 different actors each play 6 different characters through six different story lines in six different times..
It was beautifully photographed. and The musical score was great. .. parts of it were amazing story telling, parts of it were pretty goofy..and no tas well made. .. . The story kept folding back on itself like batter in a mixing bowl. By the end, all the stories concluded.. and you came away feeling good- 
the strange thing is that I can’t get the story lines or the characters out of my head today.. i keep trying to figure out connections between the stories.. and who played who.. i would like to see it again.. but can’t imagine sitting still for another 3 hours..
The one thing I really liked abotu the movie is how it showed a clique of people travelign through time together, taking differnt roles in differnt stories.. soemhow.. i don’t think thas far from the truth.. I like the ones I’m with.. 🙂
We made our own cloud atlas today.. we went to the new sandy beach at the intersection of the huntington and winooski rivers.. All the sand was dropped by the storms over the last three weeks.. It used to be deep river there.. It’s a perfect place to lie out and catch soem son.. and it’s only about 400 feet from our front door..
Ok.. time to go pick up gabe.. More of his stories tomorrow
hope you and your cloud family had a reat weekend
