Auf Wiedersehen und Hallo Dies!

Diesel has been traveling tons, and after his London trip, he spent one day in Germany. Literally: one day. One day flying in, one day flying out, one actual day in Berlin for his meeting.
Like a little kid, I have gotten into the habit of making sure Diesel knows that if he’s [...]

The Bad Daughter

As most of you know, my parents were here to celebrate our birthdays week. We all have birthdays in May, so I thought it’d be great to celebrate it all together. So my folks were in the city for a week, and although I took some time off to hang out with them, [...]

Angry Asian vs. Stupid Old Man: The Final Duel, or The HATED Donald Duck

Have you ever worked with somebody really really dumb? I’m sure you have. In my life, this person is Donald Duck. After you read this post, you will realize that this co-worker’s Disney character codename is the only jolly thing about him.
So why Donald Duck? Because he spends many work hours [...]

Thanks Fabulous Peeps!

Thank you all for your calls, e-mails, e-cards, blog comments, Facebook messages, etc wishing me a happy bday. I haven’t had a chance to respond to each of you individually, but I shall.

Return

I’m hungover, tired. Taking the train to Luton Airport, 40 minutes north of the city by First Capital Connect train service. Seated next to others hopping an EasyJet flight to somewhere warmer, sunnier. Listening to Barbara singing “I don’t want to live without you” while watching the lush green countryside pass by. Many others waiting [...]

In London. Can’t Sleep

I did make it to London, arriving in Luton Airport at about 11:15 am and getting all the way to the hotel by about 1:00pm. I took a short nap, worked on an RFP and attended to other work things and then went for a coffee and a walk around Regent Park with my boss [...]

I Hate Cars

It finally happened. We came brutally close on our trip to Florida. I didn’t sleep and we left just after 4am for a 6:15am flight out of JFK. Getting to JFK via subway isn’t hard. You take the F to Jay St and transfer, literally 10 ft away, to the A train which takes you [...]

Vacation with the Sales in Panama City Beach

Aren’t they the cutest?  Unfortunately the blue eye dynasty ends with me, as my more powerful, dominant Asian genes will prevail

So on Friday night, after dinner, Dawniel, Cyrill, Dies and I headed back to the LES and had a drink. [...]
