Yes, they've already scolded me for adding an E to Absolut...
I just know how to fuck up a good thing!

Alas, not the full day drowning in vodka that I had planned...BUT it's so much better.

There's a lot to absorb and listen to...well above just the hard sell the Absolut brand folks are putting on for us.

Check out some of the folks walking around the room and on the panels.

Danny Clinch

Sebastian Errazuriz

Paul Pope

Andrew Stockdale

This the most pseudo-semi-celebrities I've ever been in the same room with.

Thanks Scaramouch!

She's got a fun trick to show you.

You just have to guess where the scarf went.

Hmm...

This lady magician's trick is my kind of magic.

I've been attempting to write this entry for the past hour and I can't do it. I can't be clever nor insightful. The fact of the matter is, I'm hungover. Severely hungover. To the point that my body is outgassing constantly and everything is bothering me. It's too hot outside, but too cold in my apartment. There's nothing good on television. Why won't Kelly Ripa return my phone calls? I might still be drunk.

Last night was the second consecutive night of partying. The fine people at Nespresso and Sur La Table unveiled Nespresso's new CitiZ espresso brewer at the party and, unfortunately for me, had an open bar. Free is free, and I'll take full advantage of that. Sadly, I forgot that today is Friday and I have to be at work. What's worse is I have more plans to drink tonight and for most of the day tomorrow.

Is admitting you have a problem the first step or the last step? Anyone have good hangover remedies?

For the rest of the day today, I'll be reporting from inside the Absolut World.

A day surrounded by vodka?
Damn right I volunteered!

The event will be hosted by NPR's Kurt Anderson and promises "an engaging day of creativity and insights."

Yeah...insights!

I'll post about the days events if I can, but you can follow my progress, shot by shot, from inside a bottle of Absolut, here.

If all goes as planned, my messages should get increasingly incoherent
as the day progresses.
