Perhaps it's time to give up the madness.
At best, it's it's own reward.
E-mails from alex and phone calls from luca and Davo in Australia, they helped a lot.
And just a few weeks from now I'll be on vacation in the Boston area, spending some time with my family, some of the time in Provincetown... with my family... they are really kewl, my family...
When I get back from the northeast, I have a very interesting holiday retail period. It's going to be fabulous! We have so many new products that are at a price point that will kill for the holidays!
Yes, I get off on this sort of thing. It's all fun, part of my second career and second childhood. The fact that this year we have way more 365 chocolate truffles than last year makes me very wet! hehe.
And it looks like I'll be going to Ireland in the spring... and visiting some very lovely cheesemakers in the company of some very nice people from these boards.
What could be better?
Oh, yes, Vegas in January!
I've had to start doing my schedule over a month in advance now; part of keeping the team budget in line... unusual for me to plan so far ahead, but refreshing in a way. Kind of nice to know where I am going. And I can still change it if I need to, it's my damn schedule! Well, sort of...
I did see someone from the past today... whew, what a terrific blast from the past!
(I'm sorry, I was going to post the picture, but it's just not right. He did some local porn.... but it's just not right...) Amazing to see him today. He looked very good, but then he'll never look bad, sort of like Paul Newman will never look bad.
This man was the beginning of my male menepause, hehe. I mean, I freaked out, I quit my job, I went to Australia, came back, nursed my Dad after my Mom died, spent this incredibly long time away from work... and almost didn't find my way back to the world of work.
Of course you know that I did find my way back, but it was a close thing.
(I mean... just throw in 9/11 and luca, bwahahahaha!)
Very strange to see him in the store today. Stranger still to remember as I was racing down Esplanade on my way home that he still owes me 40 bucks.
Oh yea, kharma.
:) hehe.
