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 [...]

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. [...]

Loving It

Our new Sony eReader
Last month Diesel and I were really obsessed with getting either a Kindle or the Sony digital reader. We even went to the store and played around with the Sony one. As for the Kindle, I had it in my Amazon cart and was ready to hit the “buy” button [...]

Days Fly by - Dawniel and Cyrill Visit

After a busy trip to Seattle, we finally came home and had more visitors from Seattle: Dawniel and Cyrill. Both are fellow foodies, so of course their trip was planned about some restaurants they were dying to try out. Dawniel sent us a wish list a while back, so it was 2 [...]

7th Ave, Brooklyn

My last meeting of the day on Friday was with a small startup that was introduced through a colleague. After an hour and a half of discussions and demonstrations, we went to a nearby Belgian bar on 43rd and 6th. The last time I went there, I ended up in the emergency room with an [...]

Diesel and his Guitar

Last Monday I came home to a surprise. Diesel was sitting on the couch playing his NEW GUITAR.  He said he was going to get an used one off of craigslist, but apparently that idea went down the drain.

When we first started going out, he played used to play his electric guitar, but somehow [...]

In and Out of Seattle

Phew!  Sorry to disappoint our three faithful readers, but last week was super crazy and I realize neither Diesel nor I have blogged in a while.
I had a sales meeting in Seattle, and Diesel timed his quarterly trip to his company’s headquarters so that we were there at the same time, which is awesome, [...]
