Friday afternoon – Dulles

Just about to land in dulles.. Just spent 9 hours grinding through my email which  felt productive. flight is late so will have to run for my plane I think.. 

Trying to think of soemthign interesting to relate in all of those emails… 

how’s this..  in my email today  I found that I know   two completely different   groups of people  who have (or will be) doing soemthing  totally fun and artsy using the zero gravity simulator.. also known as the ‘vomit comet’ ..

Thursday night – underoverslept

I overslept today… big time. I rolled over to see it was 11 AM.!!!!!… I remember my alarm going off at 8.. but must have managed to turn it off in my sleep . The . good thing is , I had only missed one meeting.. and I was optional to it. At first I was shocked.. I hadn’t done that in… hmmmmm.. in fact I can’t remember the last time I did that. .. or anything close. Before you judge me.. I should say I got off my last work call at 2:30 AM on a day that started at 7AM. I’m not complaining.. it was a tough day.. but it had it’s high points.. lots of cool tech, some good work freind intereactions.. but I had no idea how sleepy I was. I’ve trained my self over the last couple of years to ignore jetlag.. which isn’t a good thing, I guess. 

ok.. trying this sleep thing again… lets see how it goes

Tuesday night – Friends out of context

 

Hello from Munich.. busy day here. Afterwards was at the Marriot bar having  a drink with my friend Lisa when a very familiar woman walked by. I started paging through my mental Rolodex to remember where I knew her from.. was it work ? was it from home.. She new exactly.. She’s one of my favorite fight attendants on United.. She generally  makes  the Munich/DC run. I have seen her and talked to her  so often in that context it took m a second to recognize her in this very different context.   

This is Margot.. the nicest  flight attendant I know.. I’ve even blogged about her before !

 

Saturday evening – Friendly Skies

 

Margot sat down with us for a while and we were able to catch up . Turns out Margot’s daughter blogs too…. and her mom helps by proofreading. . I took a look, you should too.. it’s a beautiful blog with lots of  beautiful hair.. and, I must add, beautiful proofreading 🙂
