For work related reasons, I'm off to New York (isn't it often called something else? blue apple, big red, red apple? i dunno)

I've never been there. I'm not really sure what to expect other than a big city. I'll be working a couple of blocks from the south end of Central Park on Madison avenue. Apparently I'm staying about half a block off of Broadway (street? avenue? does anyone care?).

I'm told there are lots of things to do and see there. I'll see (literally, I suppose).

I haven't flown in a while again. Actually, it was in March going to New Orleans. For a while I liked flying because it was a fairly distraction free place to do things. Now it's just uncomfortable. At least I'm not taking a red eye. However, I don't land until nearly 8pm local time. That means it'll be dark; especially after I get my bags and get a taxi to my hotel. I sure hope it has late food available.

I don't have to worry about the time change much. The company I'm visiting doesn't "open" until 10am. As I told them, I may occasionally beat them in even though they have a 3 hour time zone advantage.

Oh, I have a blue apple on my shirt. That's for Apple, the company. Hmm. Maybe I'm just imagining things.
