Wow. It's been a while. I was going to try and inaugurate my return to using this wonderful tool with an entirely new blog, but was daunted by the prospect of how much work it would actually take for me to learn to create a sexy webpage. I still intend to do this at some point...but maybe when I don't have so many other more pressing things to do. Whenever that will be.
What have I been busy with? A number of interesting projects have been absorbing most of my time since October last year. Most interesting (and intense) is a large media deal in Russia that is a very exciting opportunity. In between my IFC project work, I have found a fair amount of time to travel; went back to Penn for homecoming, was back in Calgary for Christmas, and last weekend went to Dallas to meet up with Reid and Whan - it was about time. Reid and I were both amazed that it had been more than a year since we had seen each other, which we hope to not let happen again. Once he moves to LA, I'll use it as an excuse to (ashamedly) make my first trip to California. Ever.
This coming Sunday, I should be on a plane to Moscow. It will be my first time in Russia, and it will be cold. I don't think even Canada will have prepared me for the bone chilling week ahead. Vodka may be the only remedy. Does drinking vodka in Russia amount to a cultural experience, or am I just deluding myself?
The only downside to all this travel is the amount of time Jin and I have to spend with each other. Right now Jin is in Brazil, traveling this very moment I believe from Rio de Janeiro to Belo Horizonte, where she will be staying in a cabin in the rain forest and looking at a carbon emmission mitigation project in the rainforest there. Awesome, and I'm sure she's having a blast. But she's also leaving to Korea and possibly to China for 6 months at the end of January, so we're trying to make the most of the time we have available in January. As it is we don't have much. She gets back Friday, we have Saturday together to celebrate our one-year anniversary (can't believe it's been that long) and then I leave the next day. Hopefully the couple of weeks at the end of the month won't be too full.
