Missing a Day of Blog

I have to run to catch a plane. (Ottawa in February! Ah!) I’m speaking at a customer support conference and I’ve definitely decided to come out in favor of supporting customers. Sure it’s a controversial stand, but it’s what I believe.

This is the first time I’m going to be away from my blog. I barely have time to do an entry today, and tomorrow I expect to be blogless. I feel like the first time we went away for a night without our kids. Sniff sniff.

Mostly, I feel bad that some really interesting conversations are going to continue swirling and I’ll be left behind. Fortunately, I just finished reading the book “Thinking with the Left Side of Your Behind,” so maybe I’ll be able to catch up.

Here’s an example: AKMA has advanced the conversation about voice and authenticity that I’ve threaded here. Although I never thought I’d be using this as an analogy, I feel like I’m on a curling team. There’s this 42-pound stone that’s sliding its way down an alley, and AKMA, Dave Rogers, Tom Matrullo and I are walking along with it, adjusting its progress by sweeping the ice with brooms.

Gotta go…before I write any more bad analogies.
