As planned
“Can I play video games for a little?” my 4 year old asks, in Portuguese. My answer I expect will throw him off, “Not the Wii. The Iphone”. The fact that I understand Portuguese still surprises me.
Weather today is muggy, as forecast.
In the office, Pete asks “Coffee?”. Like clockwork, I pretend to think about it and nod. The fog of sleep will not lift, unaided.
“I’m going to see Sylvie tonight, ok?”, Andrea reminds/asks me. “You don’t need to ask”, I remind her (she is still not convinced after 7 years of marriage).
A public tweet claims our late Friday conversation was very pleasant for a late Friday conversation. I nod. Not what I was expecting at all.
It catches my eye – Hunch.com has 10 billion connections in their taste graph? Amazing. I wonder how well they will do, telling my tastes. Apparently very well, but I have to stop when one recommended topic is – “should I be looking for a job”.
I’m nervous about one of our new projects – so I’m using a business plan pitch format. Somehow business plan structures feel more thought out and better able to divine what might happen versus more creative formats. (all this despite routinely asking other people if they feel they want to share a plan when they won’t bet on how their life will be in 5 years).
Surprise – at least one thumb up. I know we’ll make this a massive success.
Huge downpour. Bike stays at work, but luckily find an umbrella that I had forgotten at the office, weeks ago.
For some reason Oli won’t sleep. He points, I guess. We agree that he needs to hold a car and lie next to me on the bed. Max joins after multi-party bi-laterial negotiations regarding sleeping arrangements.
“Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition”, I can almost hear John Cleese storm into the room.
I wonder what time Andrea will be home?
