this morning i had a meeting with a company about participating in my research. last week when i spoke to the guy on the phone we talked about a few different teams i could work with but today we both realised there’s only 1 that fits into my project – the senior mgmt team. that would rock but it seems like getting them to participate will be the issue. we’ll see what happens.
for those of you at home, it’s wed nite ie thanksgiving eve. here it’s thursday but no one cares about thanskgiving. i’ve met 3 americans here that apparently do a huge dinner but i’ve only met them once & am not invited. i was thinking of doing something this saturday but havent gotten organised enough. i’ll have to do something though cause i have friends who can’t fathom the idea of sweet potatoes w marshmellow. 
one crappy thing about being out of the country is not seeing the parade. BUT i’ve just found streaming video!!! earthcam
is streaming now…. (from 46th st … not uptown where they are blowing up the floats).
earthcam sez the parade is at 11a (is that right??) so that’s 4pm thursday if ur in london & 3am friday in melbourne. i have the live cam running now & all i can hear is the buzz of noise & a car honking its horn every few seconds. oh… now there’s a siren going off…. ahhh… the sounds of home….
oh… btw…. it’s a beautiful sunny warm thanksgiving day over here…
