I spent the whole day — well, 10:30 to 4 — in a meeting with our sales reps talking about some of the new and important books for the season. There was a free lunch, but I’m a little wiped. I’ve spent the evening mostly watching the end of Aliens and doing a crossword puzzle. Dinner was from the local Azerbaijan grill restaurant, and the crossword was from the New York Times.
It’s a long weekend here, which is nice, although it’s turned quite cold again, which is less pleasant. It snowed for about five minutes this morning — blink and you might have missed it — but right now it’s just really windy.
Did I mention I was in a meeting all day long?
All day meetings are wretched.
