The Zero Hour Approaches

Chris and Sean are moving around the office right now, picking up this, taking that upstairs to Nick, who’s finishing up his packing. Nick and Sean leave around 10am for the airport, and in a few hours Nick will be underway to London, and then to Bali.

Sitting here at my desk, checking email, scanning the blogs, seeing what’s new and ready to be tackled since shutting down my computer last night, I can’t quite decide if Nick’s leaving has or has not sunk in. I think it has; at the same time, he’s still here, and the pace around the office is quick; once the car pulls away, and I know Nick’s desk and apartment are empty, maybe then things will hit full force.

I’m not sad though; if anything, I’m kinda elated. Nick’s doing something he’s wanted to do for a while - and that makes me so happy for him, and proud of us for building BootsnAll to where we can start doing things like setting up the Bali operation.

It’s a little past 9am; the guys will leave soon. I’m raising a toast to a helluva guy, and to Bali, and to BootsnAll.
