Tuesday night – on the mend

I was to have traveled today for a meeting.. but realized I was too sick to travel. Very good call.. i was able to participate in the all day meeting by phone.. and typed in my responses to save my voice. All in all , int worked out very well. I managed to stay glued to my seat and working for about 12 hours.. kind of a normal day these days..

I’m frantically writing code for some upcoming demos.. so not much exciting and new to report. Hmmm

so what to put here in my blog.. ?   How about a video I was watching today of a performance diane an I recently saw. It was Anais Mitchell.. a local singer/songwriter playing with the members of Sessions Americana. It’s a cover of an old Ian Anderson/Jethro Tull song called Skating Away. I think you’ll like it ..

I feel like Im skating away !
