At least the weather is nice...

Dateline - Syracuse, NY - This is the first time in months that I have arrived here notto have it eithere frigid cold or snowing so hard that the roads and everything else aren't covered white.

But the day has been long for a variety of reasons. The go live has gone slow to say the least. And tomorrow is going to be even longer as I have to be in at 6:30 and will be there at least 12 hours before the day is done.

I am a bit sore from having done drywall in my bonus room over the weekend. But, finally, I can see light at the end of this tunnel.

Does everyone vacillilate about how they feel about their job everyday? Maybe because I received an email indicating my company wants me to be a presenter at their user group in August that I am feeling better. Of course, that doesn't change where the product needs to go overall and I am sure that my feelings will change again. The question is: when? I give it 2 days max.

I have missed talking with some old friends and am going to try and change that before the week is out. I am here till Friday, so I better make the best of it.

And I should add some pics of my travelogue so to speak.

I guess they might want to rethink that....

Dateline - Gainesville, GA - Alot happening here in the Atlanta area between Friday and today. As I was leaving Syracuse on Friday, I was talking with my wife and she told me about the courthouse killings.

It was chilling in many ways. No more so than when I arrived back home at the Atlanta airport and saw all the freeway signs telling to look out for the infamous green Honda. I wasn't even here that much and just knowing that this person was on the loose made you uneasy.

Through it all, the only other thing that I could think about was that while being questioned during jury duty earlier in the week for a case that was going for the death penalty, I was told that several folks had actually wanted to be on the jury.

I wonder how they are feeling now. But maybe that would make it that much more enticing as they would have their 15 minutes right there and then.

Not for me. That isn't how I want to spend my time in the limelight, What if I already had my 15 minutes and didn't know it??? That's something to consider.

Enough for now.
