Not exuding jump start sparky stuff this morning.

But then, coffee is still in the esophagus.

"Jump start" -- I could have used one of those this morning. Awake at 4-something this morning, then again at 6:00 sharp. Not an especially productive day, but I got through most of my emails and knocked a few small items off my to-do list.

Including a slightly painful phone call with the president of the American equivalent to my European committee, trying to restore peace between the two. (It might have been better if I hadn't been jetlagged.) The upside is that the stage is now set for renewed cooperation between the two in our next mutual teleconference. The downside is that it could result in a brutally short trip to India next month -- fly in, spend one day there, and fly back. But under the circumstances maybe a request to book business class might be granted by my boss' boss' boss.
