I want four fried chickens and a coke.
(Don’t forget the dry white toast for my brother.)
Well it was good actually. One of the 5 or 6 most famous researchers was there and she and I tag teamed a neonatal A and P lecture for the rest of the Neos and a bunch of Fellows and Residents. For some reason she thinks we are friends, so I just go with it. She broke social distancing protocol and hugged me when she heard about my promotion and she started dancing. I absolutely can't believe this and I texted everyone I know. Then we went in the unit for rounds and hopefully turned a couple of kids around. Hell of a good day. But I did have that beer.

THAT, my friends, is super chill.
I did a Bike and Barge cruise a number of years back, from Amsterdam to Bruges. We cruised a few city canals, but not in a boat like that. Ours was a converted sand and gravel barge turned floating 4 start hotel, including a gourmet chef. But not a yacht.

When I first joined my (very large) employer many years ago, our department had a nice going away party for Ram who was transferring to a facility in New York. Bon Voyage, Ram, good luck in NY, etc.
Several months later, my boss got a call from the guys in NY asking when he was going to let Ram transfer down to NY...he'd been drawing his salary for months, but had never shown up down there...the Italians must have heard about this.
