"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

A Hallmark
I wanted to make a quick note of something of a hallmark that passed today. For the last couple of months I have been working on transitioning the daily operations of my former department over to their new management. It was a very involved and detailed process that had about 140 plus distinct tasks on the line item list - each had to be documented, the new direction determined, then transitioned into the new state. It was a lot of work over those last months - and today I officially declared the end of the formal transition period. Now, we'll go into the informal portion of the transition. So, today is the formal hallmark of the end of that transition. I am officially in the new role now. Fun and joy.
