Fri

Awesome weather all day, like 72 F. It's 9:30 pm, and it's still 63 F right now. All the restaurants around work were packed all day, their terraces open and super-crowded. Markt had a long line to get a table for lunch!

Had lunch at Vento with a colleague, great olives as usual. Had a light dinner also in the meatpacking area, great table overlooking the scene, sipping a Martini. A photo shoot for Cosmopolitan magazine across the street. Cute redhead model

Got a txt from Julian. May have to head out again tonight, maybe the Village

DVDs

OK, updated my DVD collection catalog, it's now up to 620 titles. Do you have any idea how much space 620 DVDs take up? It is amazing, they take up so much bookshelf space.

Duane

Just walked to the Duane Read in the corner of 5th Ave and 34th St. to get some misc stuff. It's nice out. I guess I may go out in a bit.

Norwalk

Went to Norwalk for a meeting that lasted well into the afternoon. Norwalk is a town about 45 min North in CT. Beatiful landscape, riding on an Audi TT with the top down, 72 degrees out. Below is a map. Diageo and Guinness USA have their headquarters in this town. Amazing offices. Each brand gets their own conference room. Today I spent time in the Tanqueray room, the Cuervo room, and the Captain Morgan room. High-tech stuff everywhere, 2 plasmas and 2 projectors per room. Bottles of Johnnie Walked embedded into the elevator walls, etc. Impressive cafeteria with great food, and a huge club inside the offices as well.
