I’m Out of Social Fuel

Why do I love most
among my hereos those
who sail to that perfect edge
where there is no social fuel
—White Dwarfs, Michael Ondaatje

Man, it’s been a busy week. After a crazy work week, we’re over to Victoria on Thursday night. Much socializing follows, more work and meetings on Friday day, then off to the opening of Bolloxed.

Out late partying with the cast and crew, little sleep, then up at 6:15 AM to fly back to Vancouver to help run BarCamp Vancouver. Busy day there and much talking there, and my conversational energy was entirely spent.

Now it’s Sunday, and I’m trying not to say anything to anybody. I went to a bad teen movie and for a long walk. Now I’m seated in a trendy Yaletown cafe with a large bottle of San Pellegrino.
