Brief notes on some of what I’m thinking about at the start of this week.

Gratitude: My son was home for the weekend and we got lots of enjoyable time to hang out together, including going to a live taping of some of our favorite comedians recording for an episode of Spontaneanation.

Expectation: This week our global sector team is in town for internal meetings and some targeted client conversations; I’m looking forward to connecting with colleagues from other offices and to digging into the workflow and thought process of some large companies in our target market.

Check it out: I am half-way through an eight-volume manga called Pluto by Urasawa and Tezuka; it’s a fascinating story based on an earlier manga called Astro Boy. This is the first manga I’ve read and I am really enjoying it.
