Well, feels like I just got home and now leaving forTexas again - for another 3 day session... this time with our partners from Europe MiddleEast Asia (EMEA) and Asia Pacific Japan (APJ). I look forward to coming out of this week with a clear idea of what we want to set in motion and accomplish while overseas.
Pretty busy end of the week here in Jersey. A lot of running around to pick up 'stuff' that I may need while abroad, such as: Old Navy sweaters, new t-shirts, new dress shirts, fitted sports coats and luggage with rollers (thanks, Rosie!). Also, found time to give blood on Friday morning and then go to dinner with our good friends, Russ and Trish, Friday evening at the Black Horse Inn, Mendham, NJ.

Saturday, more chores around the house including getting the Honda ATV ready for the winter snow for Rosie and spending a fun evening with Meg and Mike over dinner, a fire outside in our old chiminaya and gazing at the moon and stars through Mike's telescope. A very nice evening on the mountain... I even got to celebrate X-mas early. Meg brought me my gifts since I won't be here: an etiquette book on Asia, adapter and plugs for my e-toys and, a neat passport holder that goes discreetly around my neck on a lanyard. I really appreciated all the gifts... Thanks, Meg and Mike!

Woke up this morning and just busied around. I'll be on the same flight as last Sunday, CO Flt#450, scheduled for takeoff at ~1515, arriving in Austin, TX, around 1815. Left the house at noon for Newark. Got to the airport at ~1300, parked in P1, jumped on the Airtrain to Terminal C, checked 1 bag, made it through security OK and strolled over to Gate 73 to await boarding. Our chariot this afternoon, a B737-800. My seat: 24D.
More once I get to the Hampton Inn in Round Rock.
