Yes, it's already mid-January and I realize I haven't posted for you for nearly a month. And interestingly, I haven't had out-of-town adventures for nearly two months. That's crazy talk given my 2008 travels altogether!
Now that we are in the midst of a near year with infinite possibilities, I thought I'd share a couple of fun events & adventures of late. Interestingly, they are both a part of my past, but provide the opportunity for me to look forward to life-long friendships.
DRIVEpm CRM ReunionWe were finally able to get the gang together again for Happy Hour this week. The CRM team circa 2005 was a team of gents with Angy at the helm. Quick catch ups, updates, juice, and shared stories over cocktails allowed us to bridge the gap of time and travels and will allow us to start from a new place when we get together again and again moving forward!
Matty Allen in SeaTown
One of my closest BSchool friends was in town from Austin this week. In addition to an MBA Reunion of sorts at our favorite watering hole, Matt, Charles Newton, Tim Grieb, Michael Pidduck and I were able to get some small group time and get caught up on Matty's crazy heart story and check out his new hardware. Spooky and awesome altogether. Great to see you, Matt.
Of course, I look forward to continuing to have you along on my adventures, here or abroad. Interestingly, I realized this week that I was in Ireland a year ago and that I had an awesome 2008 relative to seeing the world (Dublin! London! Tokyo! Sydney! Seoul! Mumbai! Hong Kong!). As always, I'm happy to share the things I get to do and see with you, Avid Reader, as it makes them much more real to me. That said, here's to 2009... and to looking forward. Happy New Year!
