Tomorrow, Wednesday, June 18, 2014, is one of the most important days of my life, and certainly, the most important day I've had, since I passed the insurance exam.
As I mentioned in previous blog entries, my supervisor, Keith, and I.. are meeting with a lawyer.. who is a partner, in a 100 plus man law firm, that has offices in multiple cities.
My dad has been trying to prevail upon me to stay calm. I'm trying to.. but.. I'd be lying if I said I was anything but calm.
Due to the fact that I don't want to show up at the meeting all overheated, I'm going to spring for a livery cab to the law firm's office in lower Manhattan tomorrow, which aren't that far from Aflac's offices.
The big meeting is at noon tomorrow. High Noon! Sigh! The name of an old Western that I've seen several times. The attorney we are meeting with, supposedly has allowed us an hour of his time. Very kind of him.
Keith has told me he is going to do all the presenting. Mitch is going to keep his mouth shut, and hope against hope that this is finally the time I can sign a big client, which is all Keith seems to want to focus on.
I went to Austin St for lunch today, and .. for the first time in a long time, saw Kristen, the waitress who was flirting with me a couple of weeks ago. Of course, she did her usual flirtatious "Hi Mitch". I just said a cool hi, and ate my meal. I couldn't focus on her, not today. Today, is all about tomorrow, unless some unexpected disaster happens before then. If I can close.. even. part of this firm, it will be a complete game changer for me at my company, and how I feel about myself, in regard to my confidence level, which is still, shaky, considering the roadblocks I've had thus far in my work. If I can pull this off.. THEN I will be setting my sights on Kristen, and ask her the question I've wanted to, but have been delaying (No, not if she's ticklish, that will come later), but. about a date.
Please pray for me. I hope.. that this is finally the one.
