what's going on?

Morning walk at Green Lake today


At the office, the AVP of Marketing - on the job for less than five months - is leaving at the end of this month. She has been acting as the head of the division and brought something very much like sanity to the organization. In less than three months, she whipped the team into shape and pulled off the most successful NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) presence the company has had to date. She led a major office renovation (which none of us believed was possible.) And it looked like this team was going to be something real. Apparently that was not satisfactory to the Chairman. To say we are bummed is an understatement.

The only ray of sunshine in the office:

Loki, the office dog.

Posted a Craigslist ad to sell my drawing table.

No nibbles so far... the price may need to come down.

Bach Two-Part Invention #4 in D Minor

We're giving this another go....and I want to make sure it is somewhere where I can refer to it.

A rich and varied meeting this time. Good conversation and interesting work.
