This last week was spent sitting in CRM demos. Microsoft, Peoplesoft, and Oracle. I really wanted to love Oracle but their offline capabilities were more than a little lacking. An excel worksheet? C’mon! My vote goes to Peoplesoft.

Since ATA declared bankruptcy, I’ve been flying US Airways. It’s the price. I go for the cheapest ticket I can find. The one thing I have noticed is the US Airways pilots are incredible. Much better than the ATA pilots. With ATA, it felt as if we were jumping into the air and then on landing, we would hit the ground with a huge thump. Flying US Airways, I will find myself sitting on the tarmac, reading the newspaper only to look out the window and find we are high in the sky. “When did we take off?” I’ll wonder. On landing, it will be so smooth that I will not even notice that we landed. It is absolutely great!

My exercise routine has once again ground to a halt. I really wanted to Tae Bo and Salsa my way to a better body but I just can’t stick with it. On the plane ride home this morning I was thinking about what kind of exercise video could I follow and look forward to doing. It hit me. I want to exercise to Tina Turner songs and moves. The more I thought about it, I began to envision a 3 video set.
1. Proud Mary Workout! Get yourself in shape the Tina Turner way!
2. Ann-Margret Aerobics! Slap your thighs and wiggle your butt to a great body!
4. It’s a Mod Mod World! Dance in the style of the Laugh-in girls- Judy Carne and Goldie Hawn. Writhe your way to groovy gams!
I think it is a great idea. Jane Fonda, call me!

The strange things you find out about people. The girl I was eating dinner with last night had mentioned that her hair is naturally dark. I replied that I had just assumed she was a natural blonde and couldn’t imagine her with dark hair. “Oh, it’s true; let me show you a picture.” She took out her wallet and removed the plastic album and showed me a picture of herself as a brunette. I then started to look at the other pictures in her mini-album and you know what? THEY WERE ALL OF HER! Every picture in her wallet was of her! How strange is that?

Lisa and I are going to a dog show tomorrow. Lisa so wants a dog and this seemed like a good way to see what the different breeds are like. We shall see.
