Hey there. I am still alive. Just exhausted from hauling myself around the biggest fucking conference center I have ever been in. Fell asleep around 7:30 last night. Of COURSE, plane in was late by two hours, because of weather in DFW. Went to customer “mixer” and had a few.
Have sweated buckets in this hellhole called Orlando. There is no more H2O left in my body, even though I am drinking like, 100 ounces of water a day. It’s as bad as Las Vegas with just sapping the water level out of your body at a rate that you can’t replenish. Fucking Florida. No offense guys, but you gotta admit; 100% humidity every day, 365 days a year is almost ridiculous. I did live in Jax for a few years, so I do have at least some room to talk.
Anyway, will blog later. Guess what I get to do? I get to have a sit down with the CIO and CFO of the world’s second largest computer manufacturer and seller in the world. I will be one horizontal move away from meeting the dude that lives two miles down from where my family home is. Cool.

Say hi to Mickey for me, although I’m more a Looney Tunes guy than a Disney guy.
Did you try drinking lots of water?

Monday was actually really nice and not humid at all. Tuesday sucked until about five. That’s why I stay inside in the AC until November.

FL weather bites. TX weather is infinitely better. Dry heat is charming.

Wayne:
You better duck you stupido. Of course I am drinking a shitload of water… But when you walk the conference center 17 times a day, which equivocates into 4 miles, and you aren’t used to it, and it’s 300% humidity, and your hair is plastered to your head, and you are dripping sweat, and your pants are completely wet, and in the bad way, then there’s nothing you can do but be tired as hell.
Avi: Yeah. Today wasn’t so bad. I actually didn’t sweat all that much, but I was attacked by small bugs.
Poppy: Dry heat is “charming”, unless you are in vegas, when it’s 115 degrees, and you drink over a gallon of water a day, and still never pee. That’s scary. Never had an issue with water intake and sweat evaporation to the point where I couldn’t pee. At all. And literally, a gallon of water a day… Can you believe that????

I still think that drinking water is the answer. Have you tried that?

Wayne: Dumbass. If you would listen to me, maybe I might listen to you. Fucker.
Mr Fab: Dear god, are you kidding? Tuesday was HORRIBLE in the a.m. Of course, maybe you are a lazy ass and don’t get up at 4:340 a.m. to enjoy the peaceful feeling of 400% humidity swarming around your body attempting to kill you. That’s what Florida is, I just realized. It’s a death trap for stupid people.
Come on man. You know you want to say something!
