Preparing

Yes, well, I'm terribly sorry that this post isn't in verse, but I'm just not in the mood for that today. I shall write sometime in the near future (probably in verse) about the process of blogging in waka renga aka Haiku's Grandfather, because it is a fascinating thing (to me anyway).

I am off to see a client tomorrow, deep in the frozen north, four-and-a-quarter train hours away (ICE train, no less) to install the database and give them a half-day's training on it. I was planning how to get from the train station to their office, so looked them up on Google Maps, and was amused to discover (a) that their office is on the very outskirts of the town, and (b) that it's nonetheless not even one single kilometer away from the train station. I am almost hoping that it rains, so that I can take a taxi without feeling either lazy or sorry for the driver to get such a short fare.

Lunch at a nice cafe in the central business district is probably a non-starter, remind me to eat on the train.

This is where I shall be, in case anyone is curious.
