One of the things that I think I will like about my new job is travelling. It's nice to "get away" (escape?) from the known context every now and then, and experience something different. To be sure, I wont do a lot of traveling, but I imagine 1 or 2 times a year I'll travel out of province, while 3-4 times I'll leave to go to places like Saskatoon or Regina.
Today was one of those days. I left home around 7, in snowy, wintery conditions, headed for Saskatoon.
I spent the day there in meetings with Francis. He was a good host. The main theme of our meeting was orientation around the vision and mission of our organization. Time well-spent.
We ate ribblings at Tony Roma's for lunch. It's been a long time since I've eaten at that joint (we used to have one in Vancouver), and I'd forgotten how good the food was there.
At the end of the day I went to the Adidas outlet store and bought myself a soccer jersey. Then I went downtown for a coffee before heading home.
It was a good day, but I felt a profound sense of desolation during the drive back home. I'm spending too much time on my own.
