Rainy and dreary here today. Fits the place. Traffic here is the worst in the world. Going to the office this moring took 10 minutes by cab. Returning took 1 hour of puke inducing stop and go. Thought I was going to lose my lunch.
I didn't work out today because I was so sleepy this morning after an overnight flight. Tomorrow I will be sure to do it. Pretty good facilities here. Meetings went pretty well. Great team here now. Business is great and customers are happy.
Moscow is a very interesting mix of old communist mentality and dynamic capitalism that wants to be western. Everything is extremely expensive. Crime and corruption is rampant. Still, hearing stories from the past of people who lived through rationed food, restricted travel, restricted speech, and predetermined careers makes me understand how much better it is here, even with all the problems. I am lucky to see places like this. Most people never will.
Well, that's not very complelling for my first blog, but at least now I am in the game! Time for bed and a good nights sleep.

I think this is a very good first post. Don't be down on yourself! Blog entries don't have to be well organized or long or full of riveting action or anything. I think your views on the world are very interesting.
Thanks for calling me today. It was very good to hear from you. I don't know what time it is there, I'm guessing daytime? but have a good day or night, whichever it is.
Love you!
