Wed 9th Mar : Get Fit

So I came to Seattle and I'm sure work thinks I must be overweight. They put me in a guest room at the Washington Athletic Club. A 20 story building of which 10 floors is a giant gym. Everyone walks around in their sports kit. It even got me to got to the gym for a while - until I realised I had forgot my earphones for that bike machine.

I weighed myself the day after and realized I am heavier than I have ever been. US living, eh?

I had a presentation to the Seattle Burger Company. The London research agency emails me as the meeting starts to tell me that they can't do the conference call - what's wrong with midnight I reply. I mean, your kids and your husband are asleep. Actually the hudband is away so that might have not helped. I read the bullets in stunted English, pausing at all the wrong spots.

Then the partner here took me a coupla days later to the worlds best outdoor sports stoor in the world. REI. It has everything: kayaks, tents, a 40 foot climibing thing. Yeah, even skiing. It looked so good I decided to reject my life of grime and turn a leaf.

When I left, I contemplated my week and broke out a packet of cigarettes. Time for a big weekend....
