If you’re reading this, I’m no longer a Gartner analyst.
For the past 7 years or so I’ve had the best experience of my professional (and often personal) career. The product of a bad acquisition and short stint in consulting, Gartner gave a young unknown hothead the opportunity to become an industry analyst.
Like many frequent travelers, I tend to rely on sleeping pills to help me out with the jetlag. One 30 pill prescription for Ambien CR usually lasts me about 9 months, and definitely gets the job done.
I’m estimating around 60 hours in planes and airports, assuming no flight delays.
Can I go back to the dentist instead?

I’m on the 40 minute flight from Phoenix to Vegas for two back-to-back conferences any reader of this blog better already know about. As usual, the drama is already starting with rumors, innuendo, on-stage battles between presentations, the ever-elusive hunt for the next *-gate, and the always popular feats of strength.
If you read this, you know why. Arriving Tuesday, departing Monday. Probably at Hotel Paris since I didn’t get my stuff together in time. *[Email:]: Email *[Twitter:]: Twitter *[Phone:]: Phone
Dentist: You shouldn’t feel any pain.
Me: Great.
Dentist: Now close your eyes to keep the debris out.

As I may have mentioned, we moved into a new home about 3 weeks ago.
This isn’t the first home I’ve owned, so either things have changed since I bought my last house, or it’s different when you buy a new build. According to our postal carrier, we’ve been getting mail here since long before we moved in. Technically before we knew our physical address (we just had a lot number). What kind of mail you ask?
As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve been doing martial arts for a while; most of my life if you count high school wrestling. I recently switched from Traditional Taekwon-Do to Karate after moving to Phoenix.
We’re in the new house and I just fired the Roomba off for the first time. This house is a lot bigger than our last one, and the Roomba was basically roaming the entire first floor.
