Once upon a time, people used to describe the various roles they played by talking about "wearing many hats". My roles hang around my neck.
Tie plus ID's = Airline Pilot Dave
He's everything you would expect from someone in the uniform, and more. Responsible, decisive, nonchalant...
Just ID's = Jetset travelling Dave
Who knows what adventure he is off to now...
Marina Keycard = Homebody Dave
Because everyone needs a place to rest and recharge, even if it is a bustling marina equipped with a bar...
Nothing around neck = Casanova Dave
Probably because I'm not wearing much else, either.
These things that hang from me are little plastic double edged swords. They give me freedom and access to people, places, and things that few get to experience. They also have their own kind of weight, one I rarely perceive, except in times like this...
