Dim Summary

Written by / Posted in wordpress / 5 Comments

So the trip is done. I still have to drive home tomorrow, but tonight
I finally get to sleep. I have gone 4 days with very, very little sleep.
Today was amazing.
I sent Ma.tt a text and swung by his cool new digs to pick him up for Dim Sum.
Then to the hotel to get Arjun, Neil, and Andy.
On the walk Matt snapped some photos, and I caught one of our part of the group.
How fricken cool did I feel walking with these guys down the street in
San Francisco?

We went to the nice Dim Sum Dive on the border of China Town.
There was a whole nother crew of Elite Retreaters and spouses we met up with. (More to come about them in the next few posts.)

The conversation started light and friendly discussing mergers, acquisitions,
windows vs. mac, switching e-mail platforms, how to pronounce doncha of wordpress’ last name.

The conversation then quickly degraded to way silly, ridiculous humor that included
discussions on Matt’s rediscovery of cereal, specifically Special-K (Do I hear an
endorsement deal coming?), Neils endorsement of honey nut cereal, Neal’s trip to Disneyland, the use
of Black Amex cards at Taco Bell, and Matt’s suggestion that I wear a different wig to each conference since my head is a blank slate.

We had to hold Neal back as he wanted to try his hand at selling Dim Sum at
half off to other tables in competition with the aggressive Chinese waitresses.
The conversation then degraded to a point that was barely
understandable, and mildly inappropriate.
The day is over now, and I can now barely see the screen due to tired blury eyes.
This was such a fun amazing day at the end of a fun amazing week.

Stay tuned for more to come.

Big smile. Snoooze.

    If this post doesn’t get a bunch of spins I may give up on social media.

    I’m annoyed with myself for sleeping through that one, the bed was comfy but a Chinese for breakfast with you guys would of been better (hindsight, a wonderful thing).

    Sounded like a blast. LOL at Neil wanting to outsell the waitresses at their own restaurant. And Special K is the best cereal ever! It’s best with the strawberries. @Al Carlton: Chinese for breakfast…hmmmm. Sounds interesting.
