Almost forgot my invite to Birch Point tonight with Ann and Steve the Mayor
Dinner, drinks and visiting by the fire with Ann and Steve, Birch Point, Lake Vermilion, Minnesota
I know that things can really get rough, when you go it alone…
— Simple Song
Mind fried and stupid TV night isn’t until tomorrow
Ahh, chicken sliders and caramel apples for lunch during a too short break in a very hectic day
The Wild should probably lose out to improve next year, but it always feels so good to beat the Canucks
Heavenly first run of the year on Echo Point (7.4 miles)
Conference call, then a visit with the golf course GM
Another vendor snuck up here from Minneapolis today (hey @ChadAGermann), so I’m sitting in on another meeting
Safely back at work and the early morning vendor I was expecting is hard at work setting up a new server
Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip…
— The Ballad of Gilligan’s Isle
Some random stuff in my head during the long drive this morning:
- The MINI has been a good car, but I could use a few less warning lights.
- If it’s this warm now, does that mean snow in April or 120F in July?
- People who drive slow in the left lane with their high beams on deserve their own circle in hell.
- I like to think there is good in everyone, but it’s hard to see that sometimes.
- As Nick Lowe says, what’s so funny ’bout peace, love, and understanding?
- I really dislike getting older and wish I felt like I did in my early 20s.
- Places I want to return to soon: LAX, MCO and GEG.
- Why must we choose between Ginger and Mary Ann? They both rock…
Just watched Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey on Netflix – what a great documentary
Nice dinner with Colleen tonight at El Meson in Minneapolis
Laundry and cleaning the home office inbox all afternoon, but was just reminded I get to go out to dinner soon at El Meson
Tandori style pork tenderloin served over sour cream mashed potatoes, grilled asparagus, with a caramelized fennel/onion ragout, in a creamy asparagus sauce, El Meson, Minneapolis, Minnesota
Congrats to all of those who ran marathons today – really hope to run LA one of these years
Set my internal alarm clock and woke up at noon, so it’s back to the Sony tomorrow
Blue Sky Blackout was pretty awesome tonight
Drove from downtown Minneapolis back home with the windows down tonight – felt like LA (minus the traffic)
