Okay people. I busted some serious ass at work today and I’m done. Do you hear me? I’m done working for the day!! Aaah. Nothing like a little “me” time to send some personal e-mails and write an entry! Tra la la. I’m in a good mood. I have fifteen more minutes and then I’m leaving for the gym. It’s right around the corner from the office here.

Yesterday’s trip to Milwaukee was decent. Not spectacular, but it didn’t suck either. The weather could have been nicer, but what did I care? I was in an office building all day anyway. They brought in P.F. Chang’s for lunch, and everyone ate while I gave my part of the spiel. So when I was done, I had a couple pieces of shrimp, some rice, and about seven fortune cookies. Delicious.

Getting all my meetings set up for New York and really looking forward to getting back there. It just seems so long since I’ve been. I suppose it’s because my last trip was canceled. To tell the truth, I’ve been thinking a lot about New York lately and am feeling this strange pull. I’ve actually found myself on the internet searching apartment prices. Am I insane? I don’t know. It just seems like every time I’m back in the city, I fall in love all over again. But do you think I’d like living there? Yes.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I’m feeling the urge to head back to San Francisco. Work doesn’t take me there as often as it used to, and I miss the place. It doesn’t hurt that there’s an old lover there who’s just waiting to wrap himself around me like a blanket just as soon as I get there. I know. Blankets can be suffocating. But I long for that comfort. Just for a while.

I’m such a selfish brat, aren’t I?

Oh! Just got a call from a guy who recently moved to the area from Dallas. We used to work at the same company there, and he left to become a big EVP for a different company here. We ran into each other at DFW airport a few weeks ago (on the way here), and promised to get together for lunch. Nice to hear from him. Can’t wait to hear some more dirt about the old place!

Well, I’ve now wasted another 15 minutes. I better get going. Workout calls. I’d love to write a “real” entry sometime soon, but it just seems that all I have is superficial bullshit lately. I must be avoiding something important. It’d be nice to have a juicy dream just chock full of symbolism to help me figure out what I’m doing here.
