Typical morning

Carol was on the bus in Seattle, exchanging messages with me as I sat on my desk in Manila. There was a guy beside her, whom she thought was cute. We had been working together for the past couple of weeks or so, trying to streamline operations for the different companies we were bridging from opposite sides of the earth.

The designers were sending me links to their ongoing tasks, I had to review them and send my comments back to them and Carol.

Then I remembered to fetch a picture from my computer at home. A picture of my family, the Sunday we spent at Subic a couple of weekends ago. I updated my blog and wrote a bit while at the office and work wasn't so hectic.

The morning train ride was getting easier. I had a developed a routine. Ride back to the North train station, take the emergency exit to the other side of the boarding ramp headed South. Getting on board wasn't so much of a battle anymore.

I liked going to work.

I could go on and tell why, but I have to do exactly that right now.

Work.
