I'm down in Seattle right now at the corporate headquarters and there isn't a rickshaw in sight. I could dominate the market. :-)

On the plane ride to Seattle I ran into an old friend from my lifeguarding days in Edmonton. Very little seems to have changed in that world. It was nice to see her and talk about some of our mutual friends, but it seems like a whole different life to what I am living now. Talk of unions, long term time put in at pools (10 -15 years), disciplinary procedures and seniority lists. Whew, am I ever glad to be past al that stuff.

I headed back to the hotel last night and crashed for over 12 hours - I had no idea how tired I was.
