Retreat

Artificial Intelligence on the agenda, decades on from in-the-volved.  Coiner of the phrase still here, long time no see, ha.  A commitment to a month on the wagon carries the unexpected benefit of avoiding the ridiculousness of late night hijinks from years gone by.  The strange mix of old stalwarts and strangers.  Best getting home early and hanging with AA before bed.  Like with St. Paddy’s.  Some things do.  Feeling lighter now and yet unwilling to keep up the trade-off much into June.  Wonder what the right balance may be.  

In any case, the DISC analysis may help on the communications fronts, and the summertime is finally coming.  Roll on summer, roll on.

Convolutions

Another DM gem from the complicated calls as we head into the summer of increasingly complex energy rate negotiations on multiple fronts.  So far so good for the May abstention from Twitter and booze, feeling the effects on both the stomach and book reading fronts.  AA’s leap to walking across the room and ability to entertain himself also contributing greatly to the general sense of well-being.  Still similar old hang-ups though - finances, in-laws, focus on others versus family, and so forth.

Tears just the day after the license success, and thoughts of a Zambia summer escape without you.  

Frustration in the preparation for the dinner as well, with IKEA boxes and food prep and the child.  Everything needs to be so carefully considered given the shifting moods.  But it all seems to work out, when rounded with a little sleep.  Despite the “convolutions” at play.
