This week was too long. And that’s considering the fact it had only 4 days (since on Monday I just got back from Canada). On Tuesday I found a pile of work with my name on it and it only got bigger throughout the day. Long story short, I had a demo to put up by Friday and that turned some of those days into 12-hour marathons.
Now I’m not complaining. Every once in a while work picks up and I have to crank things – and it’s still a good time. The only crappy thing about this time was the fact that I got sick on Monday evening – just a cold, nothing more serious – and I had to spend these intense working days with a hazy brain. So much for focusing. Alas, the demo turned out OK.
The weekend weather didn’t help much – it rained like hell most of the time. Spring can’t come soon enough.

I’ve spent this past weekend up north, with Mark – my godson – and his family. I got there on Friday night, the usual way: driving with Roxy’s father from NYC to Waterloo (it’s a 10 hour drive, if you’re curious). I wish I could say we did more than sleeping, playing with Mark and eating, but that was pretty much all we did the entire weekend. Not that I’m complaining, of course, I enjoyed seeing my favorite Canadian family and my godson 
I came back with Roxy, Mike and Mark today – by plane from Buffalo to JFK – and they continued their journey to Seattle.

Last night I went to check out a launch party for one of my friend’s websites: Bellaga.com, an online boutique for fashion designers. I expected the usual tech-crowd – most of our gatherings are geeky on the extreme, with a M/F ratio of about 99%. So I was very surprised to see last night a lot of women – even models I assume – plus a live DJ and open bar. In retrospect, the site is about fashion, and parties with free unlimited drinks are like catnip for fashion industry people.
We didn’t stay long – I’m leaving for Canada today so I had to pack – but enough for my friends to almost get me drunk. Almost.
