Friday afternoon, a local radio station emailed that I had won 16 VIP tickets to see Springsteen in September. Plus backstage passes. But I had to respond within 24 hours. No dice. Running through my remaining texts, phone messages and emails, I found out that I had been asked to appear on 'The Tonight Show' but had to fly out Friday morning, and had been invited to attend a fantasy rock 'n' roll camp hosted by Prince, Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton, but needed to confirm my attendance within 12 hours.
周五下午,本地一家广播电台给我发来邮件,通知我赢得了16张9月份斯普林斯汀(Springsteen)演唱会的VIP入场券,外加后台通行证,但我必须在24小时之内回复。可我没法回复。在翻看余下的文本信息、手机短信和电子邮件时,我发现自己曾受邀参加“今夜秀”(The Tonight Show),但必须在周五早晨乘飞机出发,我还受邀参加由王子(Prince)、佩奇(Jimmy Page)和克莱普顿(Eric Clapton)主持的梦幻摇滚营,但我必须在12小时之内确认参加。
Last but not least, Prince Harry texted over the weekend to invite me and my wife to a party in Manhattan. Somehow, the royal family found out that my wife was a British C.P.A., and Prince Harry was having a costume party where everybody had to dress up as a British expat C.P.A. Pippa was going to be there, too, as she had once considered a career in accountancy. But I wasn't checking texts or emails or phone messages while I was on vacation, because I was trying to relax, unwind, get in touch with my inner self. Now I am in touch with my inner self. And my inner self is an idiot.
