Here in Boston, it’s a beautiful day. Perfect spring weather, warm in the sun and cool in the shade. But I’m working my cha-cha off because of three different major projects, each with critical deliverables this week. Blood pressure spikes everytime the Blackberry buzzes. Worked 70+ hours last week, expect in the 80s next week, have only had two days this year I haven’t done any work. My wife and son are in FL with her family for Passover…I gotta get out of Dodge…

My first car was a 1977 white Mustang II that I had in high school. An amazing piece of crap, leaked oil like Exxon Valdez. But it had doors that were about 9 inches thick and made of pretty solid metal. Came in handy when I bounced off a cement truck. Fast forward almost 20 (yikes) years. I now drive a Ford Mustang GT, perfect for going for a drive to the coast.

So packed everything up and hopped in the car. The great thing about where I live is that I can get to the ocean in less than 45 minutes. I end up on the patio of a coffee shop in Tiverton RI, right on the water. You know it’s a good coffee shop when the dark roast is called Honduran Hero. It was a good “airing out”…

Now, back to my oars…Red Sox game in an hour!
