I finally have a morning of rest, dear reader. No conference to get to, dinner parties for departing friends, company picnics, or late-starting NBA finals games! I still have a ton of those Pharma & Biopharma profiles to write, but I’m taking today off. The official VM fiancee & I are heading down to a party at the shore soon, but that won’t stop me from dropping some pix from the past week on you! Without Freddy Adu:
At the BIO conference, there were plenty of oddball sights. I’m still not sure why this guy was dressed like this.
Mr. Kamikaze? Mr. DNA!
The conference consists of lots of regional pavilions, because of the importance of attracting venture capital to economic areas. The Hawaii pavilion was pretty near our booth. After the second day, all the regions start breaking out local entertainment.
Evidently, Canada’s idea of local entertainment was a dude handing out test-tube shots. I should’ve gone over to the Louisiana pavilion in case they had a guy dressed like a hand grenade, giving out shots.
Well, after I left BIO on Wednesday afternoon, I went home for a brief nap, then headed into NYC for a going-away dinner for official VM buddy Bryn. He’s the guy on the left in this pic, which is busy being worth a thousand words. Note: she’s 24 weeks into her first pregnancy.
What’d I tell ya? It was week of preggers for me, as I dined with Mary & Liz that night, and stayed in Philly with my friends Blake & Ines, who are expecting their first kid. Back in the office, we have two bloatinas meandering around. It’s a conspiracy, I tellsya!
Bryn decided to show us his baby, too. I sure love my friends.
Then I get home yesterday and find some young buck just hanging around outside my house! There are no manners anymore!
