Professional
My professional life is always suppressed by my social skills. I rarely relate to people professionaly, I ususally make friends and then work with them. The possitive side is obvious, I am working in my comfort zone. No competition, not enough! aggretion and a perfect work environment. No complain, I've been always paid to walk on the edge of technology. But, is it enough? What happens to my profession down the road? Am I always want to work in window-less offices as a ... ... ... Design Engineer?

The last time that my social and professional sides were fighting was when I was interviewing a candidate much older than myself. I was wondering if I have to chat with him and let him talk about his experiences and his life or hammer him with all technical questions to write a neat and professional evaluation sheet. What if he gets offended? What if he gets offended and then get hired as my coleague? I still get blame from my old students because I was serious when I was grading their homeworks. May be it is time to let my professional side plays a little bit. If the social side get suppressed he can always write in this weblog?

Last Temptation
My old days buddy has been forced to marry. If you skip from your mom, mother nature will catch you. Life is funny the way it is. Just lay back and relax, things are happening as they should.
Bachelor party is on this weekend. We used to fantasize a lot for this moment, but things turn to happen in a rush. We had to leave those dreams and chose Vegas for the party. There is no time, everything should happen within nine months. That's the deadline defined by the mother nature.

Nothing is forever, each time you are in a sliding window. Window slides and leaves you with friends, regrest, pictures and memories. whatever you do you cannot stay in the same window. The window is sliding; even if you move with it, not everybody in the window does. You end up in a new window sooner or later. Lay back and relax.

Today I read in a business report "Paranoid survives". Don't buy it, lay back and relax.

Memorial Weekend,
Weekend was too good to be ignored. My recent
social partners have tought me one big lesson: "Always leave your options open". Actually two lessons, the second lesson is short and simple. May be that's why I almost forgot it. "Fantasize!". Memorial weekend was an excuse to practice these two golden lessons. From a month ago, I turned down all my offers. All of them were so tempting, so good to be ignored. But, I had to practice my lessons.

It was sunday afternoon, pacific ocean breeze was passing through our suite before touching anything else, I layed on a bed, buzzed from wine tasting, around me there were six more people laying on the same bed. You know the rest, don't you? (Just, don't forget the second lesson, Fantasize!)

Momy is comming tonight. Eventhough I planed to clean my home before she arrives, but I couldn't manage to do that. The trip smoked my weekend and left me no energy for the last two days. I just had enough to recover myself. Doesn't matter, Mom is the only woman that loves me even if I don't make my bed.

By the way, do you remember
last year memorial weekend. Where have
you been, missed you all.
