I'm off to Phoenix this afternoon. This trip should involve, um, several minutes of fun and excitement! And at least 12-15 hours of drudgery! I just hope I have time to pick up some postcards. Traveling somewhere new and not being able to get any postcards would be hateful.
At least the hotel where we're staying looks beautiful.
And we're going somewhere fancy and delicious for dinner. I think I'll have the salmon.
Oh, and after much deliberation and swearing, I ended up calling a car service to drive me home from the airport Sunday night. It'll cost around $110, but I kind of have to get home, and the taxis and van shuttles and share-a-ride things just don't go out to where I live. My boss okayed it, and I feel relieved to know that when I get off the plane and go down the escalator, there will be a nice man at the bottom holding a sign with my name on it and he will make sure I get safely home.
I didn't have room in my suitcase for Mindy. I brought Bear instead, because he's the original world traveler and he's never been to Phoenix, and Min went on the last plane trip. She's a little peeved at me, but my mom said she'd take her shopping (!). I'm not sure how I feel about the two of them getting to be friends. There's way too much potential for plotting behind my back.
I'll be out of email/lj/internet contact from 3:30 or so this afternoon until at least Monday morning. So have a good weekend, everybody!
