Supermoon and Steemfest memoirs are high jacking my home page while I scroll down mechanically. My breath is synced with Amsterdam’s pulse; I really miss the sound of its heart beating. Maybe I really needed this trip after all. But apparently it was not enough. My escapism is turning red, I should be feeling great but instead all I want to do right now is bring the surrounding walls down. The secretary is reminding me of all the things that I’ve left behind and all the meetings I got to attend but her words bounce back to her. My eyes are focused on her over-colored lips that move spastically and completely out of my rhythm.
Just go away, let me decompose on my desk.
I am trying to read through my 154 unread emails, but lovely faces and funny usernames flash before me. Hangover scenes are set in re-play mode and unconsciously I get a guilty smile on my face. A colleague notices. He grabs his coffee and a stroopwaffle from the travel pack I brought from the airport and sits on my guest chair.
You seem to have had an interesting time in Amsterdam… the others come round too. I would like to tell them all about it, but… my corporate suit is restricting me. I opt for a cliché.
What happens in Amsterdam, stays in Amsterdam.
Even what happened with the Awards?
I lost by a sex scene
We told you to stop painting this dark esoteric stuff.
Point taken. Though I still believe the process was rigged. I was supposed to lose by @opheliafu! hopefully I am right otherwise I will have bullied poor @burnin for nothing - and he is really a nice guy.
My colleagues want to know more.
I want to tell them about my good friend @onceuponeatime, who is actually the best friend of the whole cryptocurrency community. Definitely a blessing for me.
I want to tell them about the multitalented organizer @roelandp who went way beyond of what was expected from him, or the low profile CEO @ned who attracted everyone around him.
My old time favorite Steemer @kevinwong whose attitude and behavior justified my high opinion of him, but also my new favorite @knozaki2015 whose posts are successful but not quite close to the extremity of his intelligence and whit; I glued on this guy like a bloodsucker.
I want to tell them about the Greek clan, my closest steemit friend and supertalented artist @skapaneas with who I could communicate just by looking at him, the fun photographer @steemychicken1 and the other photographer Spyros aka @eagleboy.
Our witnesses; the grand @liondani and his wonderful wife Maria who were the quite steemforce in this whole event, the brilliant @riverhead and the charming Norwegian @svk.
I want to tell them about the Fantastic Two renegades @saramiller and @everlove who spread their amazing energy wherever they go, the inspiringly good @mammasita who can effortlessly convince you to leave your comfort zone to go after the unexpected, but I also want to tell them about the kindest smile on the blockchain @steemrollin who I caught off-guard when I kissed both his cheeks as per Greek custom!
I want to tell them – no, I want to show them our @mrs.steemit, and my wonderful cuz @andrianakout who I dragged down to Amsterdam to spend some quality time together and in the end I parked her to a bunch of Steemers and did my own thing. I think she had fun though; as an aspiring photographer she had a lot to share with super-interesting @andrarchy and our own photographer @steemychicken1. Not to forget @logic who is also a fellow krav-maga practitioner and Spartan racer! And there are so many others worth to talk about, but for the moment I think I’ll just send them back to their desks.
I’ll show you a video tomorrow
I haven’t slept for three days and I am missing the sound of its heart beating.
