Sabbatical minus 7 days
I have one week before I leave for Budapest then Croatia – wow – I can’t imagine swimming in the Adriatic every day instead of sitting at my desk with IM, Skype, cell, landline, computer, email, and calendar and notebook all at my fingertips – ready, aim, fire… – I’m going to enter eel time in a big way. I was speaking to a colleague about how their sabbatical went and they said they were gone for six weeks and when they were coming back through the airport on their way home the headlines read “Ford’s CEO says it is worse than imagined” – I’m leaving at a time when the market is going to hell in a handbasket, when media is trying to re-imagine itself, when I’m trying to be relevant in difficult time – I’m sure all of this will melt away with the first dip into the sea.
