Running to the Boston Marathon

Woke up in Miami - the Previous 36 Hours (or this could be a season of 24!)

Had dinner with my partner and friends thursday night at Downtown Bar and Grill in Cobble Hill = Great
Didn’t Pack = Neutral
Woke up at 4AM friday = Same as always
Work Webmail access didn’t work! = Not so good
found the blackberry i never use since i use Webmail = Good
Blackberry doesn’t work = BAD
6 meetings to get through before 2PM departure time from work = Same al always
Help Desk fixes both Webmail and Blackberry! = Things are looking up
Phase 1 of a major project at work looks like is going to have more than a few issues = Oh **** not going to be a pretty week, next week
Boss says “I don’t want you dialing into at the Wednesday Meeting, its not going to be pretty, in fact you will hear it 1900 miles away in Miami” = This could be good, in more ways than 1
Finally leave the office after doing a team meeting an blowing off a meeting = Getting Better
Forget my iPad and Badge, our PA distracted me while i was packing and have to go back = DAMN
Car service to the Airport is at 5PM = gives us time to eat
Packed! = Good (so i think)
One last conference call = should be short and sweet (so I think)
Car Service on time and we are off to JFK = Yippie! home free now!
Boss calls while we are in route to the JFK = Refer to #9 = I don’t want to be the guys who are part of the problem
No line at Security in JFK = Fantastic!
Get to the Airline lounge and get food and a beer = Can’t get much better
Called the Boss back see #17 = Still happy I won’t be there for the Massacre, although i do like a good Gory Movie
Wake up half way through the flight and can’t remember packing the power cord for my MacBook Pro = Somewhat problematic
Woke up after good night sleep, made coffee = Perfect!
I Think ” ….Miami warm, pool, shorts…opps didn’t pack shorts!” = Comical, but i do have 3 running outfits to choose from the the race tomorrow
Almost time to pick up our numbers and race swag! = Perfect!
