Question for the week
|
Posted: 10/10/07 I’ve been home from New York for forty-eight hours. My bag is unpacked, my mail is read, I’m back in my own groove; but the memories of the fun I had linger. Keith, Chris and I managed to squeeze a trip to the MOMA, a stroll down Park Avenue, drinks at Grand Central Station, a Broadway show, and three excellent dinners into our time together. What I liked best was our conversations. Given that the weekend was about being together without working together, I was struck by how little time we actually spent talking about fredflare.com. This was in contrast to our usual get-togethers, where fred is the center of attention. With the focus on fun, we had time to talk about TV shows we like, politics, art, and “Spring Awakening,” the Tony Award winning musical we saw that all three of us thought was over-rated. In fact, on my return home I found the various theater critics’ original reviews online and read every one to learn what they saw that we didn’t. It did give me a different perspective on the show, but didn’t change my original opinion. Finally, one added benefit of this weekend trip is that the next time I go to New York for work, I’ll be completely ready. I won’t complain about the long work day. Which is what a vacation should accomplish. Rested and relaxed, the vacationer returns to work with a will.
