Weekendupdate

Had a HUGE week. Where do I begin.

So, last Sunday I flew out to San Jose for training. Well, I usually don't really like business trips because for the most part, you're out there alone and you just sit in a hotel room. That's how they go for me anyway. But this is San Jose! The difference is that I have a bunch of friends out in the Bay Area and what better chance to hang out. I was a bit worried at first that they live too far from where I was staying but then I found out that Szujin lived about 15 mins from my hotel. Perfect! I hate showing up and taking time out of peoples lives but we go back kinda far so I made her hang out with me every night. Anyway, Josh and Danny (and Julie) are out there as well and I had a chance to break bread with all of them. It was really good seeing all of them again. Most of all, it was great seeing them all do well.

Otherwise, class was good. I actually did learn a lot and hope that I can use my new skills.

Had a nightmare flight back on Friday. It all started when I get to San Jose airport wayyy too early. I was supposed to wait 2 hours before my flight was scheduled to leave. Then it got delayed. Then again, and again. I finally boarded after a 6hr wait. I hate waiting. The flight itself wasn't bad. The crew was actually pretty easygoing and treated us all like we had actually flown before. Now the bad part. We land at O'Hare and I book it to baggage claim. No bags. The damn carousel dosen't even move. Apparently, there was a tornado watch and it caused a ground freeze at the airport. Had to wait another 2 hours before I got my damn bags. My buddy Jammerson was picking me up and waited the whole time. What a trooper. Funniest part - So I'm sitting on the baggage carousel texting Jammerson. I look over and this HOTTIE had just sat down at the carousel across from me so we're facing each other. So now I'm thinking of ways to start conversation with her. Yes, I am chicken. Anyway, right then Jay tells me he's at McD's. What a bastard. I've been waiting at the airport all day and hadn't had anything to eat but half of a tuna sandwitch before the flight so I was starving. The plan was that Jamerson would pickup my order and drive it by for me so I can eat while I wait. Right then the little wheels in my head start CHURNING. My big master plan was to ask the chick if she would watch my messenger bag that I had carried on while I go out to get my food. It would give me a good, non-creepy way of starting conversation, AND maybe make her a little jealous that I had food. MUHAHHAHHA. The stage is set, my order is in, and Jamerson says he's on his way in 5 minutes.......... Yes folks, it happens. The damn bags show up. DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe next time...... I was too tired to come up with a PlanB.

Saturday was a bit crazy too. Lets just say I got back home at 5am. Errr body in the club gettin tipsy!!!!!

......I don't want to go back to work tomorrow..........
