sitting at my desk caffeinating…

…and slowly easing into a big work week, much to do in follow-up from last weekend’s Board of Director’s meeting in NYC, and this past Thursday’s Losar party (hey Thup, we gotta take that big photo of the Dalai Lama back to the Office of Tibet, yo!).

Losar Party Video Highlights
