TR16 Journal (Day T-2) – Pretending to be a mushroom

Today I pretended to be a mushroom … Robert Bernstein gave me a strange look yesterday, when I told him about my Saturday plans and I guess it is best to explain what I mean.

DSCN0091 … A mushroom typically grows in the dark and does not move around a lot … in other words it is seems to be a relaxing lifestyle.

   Today I did just that, I drew the curtains, slept late, relaxed and moved around very little.  Here is what today’s mushroom patch looked like:

  5. I was told to eat healthy stuff and always have greens … the huge can of Embasa Jalapenos from Mexico should last the day. Wow, they are delicious … the “hot” Jalapenos back home have been re-categorised as “mild”.

On my brief excursion around the Microsoft campus this afternoon I took a few pictures:

I am returning to mushroom state until the ALM Rangers start meeting at the conference venue tomorrow.

Talk to you tomorrow.
