How Sad a Passage

COUNTESS "This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that 'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so far, would have made nature immortal, and death should have play for lack of work." -Act I scene i, All's Well that Ends Well.

A Fuzz-Topped Few Weeks


Swingeing details of so many permutations and computations moving at pace.  Night after night of crazy hours to vault ahead of the targets as we set things up for the Xmas escape.  Crossing the 1300 hour mark in time for hopefully a soft landing in the next two months, for that is all that remains pre-Kili.  Shayo seems teed up, so fingers crossed on that front.  Can his arm be twisted based on Ann's email?  Here's hoping.  And sitting front-row at some historic deal-making, with "Hollywood" public servants and thanks on behalf of the people of the Province.  As they plan against the desire of being fuzz-topped themselves at reaching the end of another difficult period, and recall nights of 7 drunks on a stage performing for the 2 remaining waiters.

Need to get back pronto on the 7 minute track and the outdoor hikes and the 15.0 incline, but worth savouring this.  Amidst the stolen George's Island signs that need to be smuggled into the car at some point when you find the time to load up the storage locker and otherwise sort through the laundry.  Probably some of the most intense work ever done here at the firm, so worth taking a moment to note that and savour it.  A fun week on that front - some solo sailing, SBTS, Energy Award dinner, Joel and Mo with the Symphony, and a last trip to George's to try and lay a kiss on drunken LC.  Heh.  Good to see Nasser last night - like a second brother indeed.  Here's hoping we see him in Brazil.  Born in a Class 5 hurricane...
