Landing
I landed back from Vegas last night, woke up this morning and spent 14 hours straight trying to hammer my schedule and work plans together through the summer. So far this year they've sent me to Copenhagen, Orlando, London, Portland, now Vegas.
I've been meeting so many people and putting so much in motion that this was the first chance I've had to sit down and try to assemble all the pieces into a machine that just might work. I'm not complaining, mind you. It's just been very intense. And I really need to catch up on sleep.
But Vegas was great. Besides the 12-hour conference days, my boss Jennifer & I managed to cruise up & down the strip, sample some pretty good restaurants, hit a show, and I blew a few beans on the roulette tables at Caesar's Palace.
What the hell, it was a lot of fun. I enjoyed it much more than I expected to - parts of the place reminded me of Moscow, and other parts reminded me of Dubai. Different permutations of glitz and dodginess.
Cecilie's flying back in from Copenhagen tomorrow. Feels like a year since we saw each other last - I'm so tired that everything seems abstract.
