work on the foot bridge...it may be endlessly under construction but at least it is for pedestrians

go to square one Sometimes I feel like I've done the same work over and over for the last two years. If I could just get past these issues, I could do this, this and this. I thought we might be going strong, but I was wrong. We are going to wait. Some more. To make a decision. So as not to upset anything. But. Things are upset by outside forces. The world changes daily in our business. Or else I'm all wet and I should have known it for two years. So work is a blast. SuRu and I were going to lunch at Ala Carrera and we saw one of the Nancys, the one we no longer work with because she left our company. So we all had lunch. The thing is: I have a lunch scheduled with her tomorrow. That's cool. I need doses of her cynicism. When I come home, Chalow is being nursed by FFP and the maid. She has a little wound under her leg that is bleeding. We don't know how she got it. She seems undeterred. We go down to the Four Seasons and pick up the new marketing director for an outing to Zoot. On the way we stop for a light at the construction site for the new foot bridge. Someone is perched on the unfinished span, taking pictures. We have a pleasant meal. I have the fish cake and then halibut with curried cauliflower and snow peas. I can't finish it. My Ala Carrera lunch seems to be coming back to haunt me. We stop in at the Seasons to say 'hi' to Rebecca and go home. I have some tummy tea. It may not be the food. It may be the job.
