My day...

Heading to bed at 4:15am is rediculous. Hey wanna be entrepreneurs, want to know how my day goes? Heres a look at Monday:

• Wake 7am - read NY Times on iPhone, return emails from the weekend, request project updates from extended team.
• 7:30am - bathe, feed, dress Cole and get him ready to roll
• Out the door at 8:15am
• 8:30am standing conference call

• 10am - update job lists and print job reports
• 1030am - check email

• Midnight - wake up and realize that i have 3 proposals incomplete
• 1am - check social sites and reply to inbound (aka procrastination)
• 2:30am - realized I never ate dinner, cold cereal, vitamins, Chardonnay.
• 415am - proposals complete, thought about billing, but didnt get to any, mind racing, just replied to an email from a friend on CST who is already on his way to work (he and I have a meeting in 5 hrs)

Ever wanted to know what its like to be me? There ya go. Super glamorous isn't it? Gucci, confetti, lavish meals, bikinis and beaches, its really the life-o-riley.  I would say that 3 of 5 days a week my schedule resembles this.  Thinking of running your own show, welcome to the big time. Sometimes being a number has its privileges.

Goodnight/goodmorning...

I don't envy that. But you probably wouldn't want to ride a single speed MTB until your heart wants to explode in the freezing cold for 24 hours. I need downtime for creativity. I need to be tired in a different way. When I go all out like that It hurts. Different strokes.

Thanks for saying hi last night. Good looking kid! (for a human).

Oh i used to have a team XTREME membership card. I still have all the appropriate accessories floating around, but i have forgone most of that for the time being. Once Cole is a little older, he will realize his dad is still pretty bad ass.

I hear ya on the downtime=creativity. When my tank runs to empty I retreat a bit.

See ya at the next "mixer", or someplace cool.
