HI Ms. D, my failed outreach to Mr Hock felt annoying for a a couple of days and then I turned to other matters. So it goes.
At a tween space—a bit of time before my last session with my client. Do I keep working or accept a few days away for it? Turns out, I've cashed out those days. Happened to come across The Soul of a New Machine by Tracy Kidder and as I'd thought of it a few days ago I took it out of one of those little free libraries. Spent to day racing through it (I'd read it maybe 35 years ago). Turns our Mr Kidder and the hero of the book, Tom West, attended the same school I did, Amherst College.
Tomorrow is promised to be a terrific day, weatherwise, so I'm taking the ferry to Bainbridge Island to walk about, visit the museum, & get some ice cream. Those are my goals.
If I wake up eager to dash off some notes for work, I guess I'll have let my dash off some notes.
All will be revealed in time, R.
