Just got on the internet -- I'm going to Mexico!

Breaking News – Mexico !
Each day in London we have been sitting in a different conference room. Today we sat in a room that included a big screen computer monitor, wireless keyboard and wireless mouse. Importantly, the computer also included internet!

Anyway, using this technology, I checked my email only to find a message from my manager: "Call me immediately." I had a hunch that the message related to a recent incident in Mexico, and, after talking to my manager, I found out that I will be going to Mexico City this Tuesday morning!

I must be honest, this is exciting! I'll still come to Chicago in time for a busy Memorial Day weekend that will hopefully include golfing with my brother and riding my new bicycle with Mark for Chicago's Bike the Drive event. (Of course, I still need to put my bicycle together, so Kevin, if you read this, I may need some help). And on Tuesday morning I'll be off to Mexico City, a city that I have recently grown very fond of.

Dinner on the town
Other than that, today was a good day at work, punctuated by a superb French dinner at St. Quentin on a recommendation from Uncle Tom. I declined the foie gras, but I did enjoy a nice red mullet and some Spanish (hey, Rioja is close enough to Bordeaux) wine to match it. It was a good change of pace from my previously Asian dominated diet.

That wraps up today's news from London.
