Planning, thinking
During the last two weeks, we stayed in New York.
We had a nice St Patrick's party at the apartment, and translated the loup garrou game into English :-) And with Braloo around, we had to make our ritual visit to Midtown Comics :-)

We have also had time to explore a couple of new restaurants: Mill Korean near Columbia, very charming atmosphere and "exotic" food, Kapadokya in Brooklyn Heights, an enjoyable second visit to the gargantuesque Japanese buffet at Minado, Tamarind Indian on Amsterdam...
There have been a few discussions at the office to maybe give me a job of more responsibilities, but negociations are tough so I'm not sure what's coming...
And we have also thought about moving so a slighlty bigger apartment, that couldn't hurt. But the apartment market activity is quite low at the moment and we don't seem to be finding anything...
What about moving out of New York and working from home? With my current job that could be totally doable...
Many questions, no answers for the moment... Maybe because there are too many possibilities ;-)
So, what else is in store for the future?
- Trying to organize a climbing week end in New Hampshire
- Looking forward to seeing my friend Gael, who's coming to visit me here. I haven't seen him for more than 1.5 years I think!
- Thinking about the summer: probably one week in France
- Thinking about all those short break locations that we should explore during week ends. Among other ideas : Boston, Quebec (the city), a part of the Adirondacks that we don't know yet, Puerto Rico... Of course we never have enough time...

Conclusion of thinking: it feels good to have a job that pays enough to afford enjoyable vacations or short breaks, and also allows to take enough time off...
