Left for Florida about on time at 9:10am.
Drove 600 miles to Smithfield NC. Went to dinner at a local place. Dreadful BBQ pulled pork. Not a good advertisement for NC style BBQ.

Follow up appntmnt with Jeanne Pierce. Blood work good. Gave me a referral to Fish and Game for the benign positional vertigo.
Updated UTM overview flyer for RPM. Talked with Matt Almeida. Opened mail, paid bills, finally found cataract instructions bundled in with the ones for the hydrocelectomy.
Left for Cambridge for Super Bowl weekend at 12:30. Arrived at Esther’s house then to movie.

2 inches or soon snow. 29 degrees.
Left Silver Spring about 9:20am – arrived Hudson 2:50pm.
Tennis at night. Played well. Final game final set served to Chad up the line middle court after four serves in a row to his backhand. He waved at it. Set.
Spent most of day working on the Road Trip Keynote review and diary entries. Also talked with UTM about RPM pricing. 
Played tennis w Ted D. Very windy. Less than good tennis.
Karen gave her 20th century women photographer lecture for Anne Bertrand-Dewsnap’s art history class at Marist.
Chinese food from Red Chopstick. Very spicy.
Talked w Harvey Meyerson for 45 minutes.
Continued to watch Mr. Robot series.
Talked with Matt Almeida.
During the first couple hours of this 16 hour flight I watched The French Connection. This is probably the fourth or fifth time I have watched this movie, though not perhaps more recently than five years ago. The movie really stands up.
One small revelation is that my recent lust for a fedora (thanks to that all around maven of the hip, David Drake) has been replaced by the need to get a hat like Popeye’s (not the spinach eater).

Karen informed me that this is actually Hackman’s hat, not the invention of the wardrobe dept.
Dinner, pot roast, I always get potted food on airlines, much less likely to be anything more than potted, was incongruously accompanied by a fortune cookie. The message is propitious,especially in light of my conversation in Berkeley Heights in the morning before departing for the airport.
I ran a 5K race along the Charles, The First Annual Asthma Fund Raiser at MGH, part of World Asthma Day. Here I am in the T-shirt from the last race (December 3, 2000) I ran in before the Lyme plague. Finished this one in 36’20”. Slow (targeted 33′ 30″) but Felt Great!!
