  • On my way to L.A.

    29 Jan 2006 » 1 min read about Travel

    Up at 4:30 AM ET. I’m all packed and ready to go. The car was waiting out front when I woke up this morning at 4:30, which was good because they’ve cut it close the last couple times I’ve used the service. Looks like my flight is ontime as well. I’ve given Zeke a ton…

  • Lots to do today

    28 Jan 2006 » 1 min read about Travel

    I have a lot to do today in preparation for my trip to L.A. My neighbors are going to be watching house and checking in on Zeke while I’m gone so that much is already taken care of. I did get started up again on exercises this morning. I started out with 25 pushups after…

    As of this moment, I’ve got one kickball game to attend (assuming I get into L.A. in time), two lunches already scheduled, and three dinners. Plus and entire Saturday with some friends.

    I said goodbye to Eric and Ryane, and Eric dropped me off at the Albany-Rensallear train station at about 10:45 AM for my 11 AM train. When I got to the station, I discovered that the train was going to be at least 30 minutes late. That was going to screw up my connection in…

  • Friday the Thirteenth

    13 Jan 2006 » 1 min read about Travel

    Yet another Friday the Thirteenth is here, the first once since May 13, 2005. I’ve always wondered why Friday the 13th is considered a day of misfortune, just as I’ve wondered why builders label the 13 floor of a building as the “14th” floor (as if anyone is really fooled by this). Wikipedia has a…
