So Oklahoma City, OK was fun (except that computer shit) and I got some good BBQ and saw Where The Wild Things Are. That movie didnt deserve the hype. It was somewhat good, but not monumental good like some people were making it seem. After that, went to Minneapolis, stayed in a killer new Embassy Suites. It was built like 2 months before I got there. Had a first class seat on the airplane home and loved every minute of it, except not getting a portable dvd player. Yea I know! WTF?!?! (I hate that acronym) Yea, I got first class for free and Im complaining. Feel free to kick me in the ass next time ya see me for being a stuck up POS. (I like that acronym)
The next week, I was in Grand Rapids and it was nice as always. Met up with a friend and had dinner at a small bistro. An awesome dinner that included a delicious salad with prosciutto and chicken. The next day we flew to Hot-lanta and stayed in a ghetto Holiday Inn. Usually, chillin at the Holiday Inn is nice, but this time it was not so nice. We left the next day, and went to Mobile, Al. This hotel was a straight up shithole. I could have pissed in the corner of the lobby with people there, and nobody would have looked twice. "Oh, thats normal." "Funny college asshole. Hey, how does my mullet look?" After that, we scurried over to Baton Rouge where we stayed in an Comfort Suites and we went to a place that had AWESOME crawfish etouffee (sp??). I saved half of it for lunch the next day and it was spicy and delicious. Baton Rouge was an alright city. REALLY southern. It also had a massive industrial district that kinda visually over shadowed the fact that the downtown is actually decent. After that, we jumped on a plane and made our way to Memphis. Well, actually itwas West Memphis, which is in Arkansas. Now, I have been to some shitty places, but this place took the cake. The hotel was full of truckers, the rooms smelled like moldy smoke, the restaurant (the only eatery in 5 miles, no joke.....even the front desk guy was like "yea.... theres no where to eat.") had like 5 things on the menu, and so on. Just shiteous. It was pathetic. So I put on the seminar and was unable to see the REAL Memphis cuz we were 20 miles from it and it would have cost a shitload to pay for a taxi to go into town. Next time, rental car fo sho. After that I flew home, got in late, and did laundry, got up, got my computer fixed, had beers and pizza with the roomies. Im in Cherry Hill, NJ right now with another PM and meet up tonight with a couple others to have dinner. For those of you that read this between now and tomorrow, I thought I had a flight that got in super late from Philly, but as it turns out I get in around 9. Not bad. Well I will see ya some time soon. Maybe a new blog post tomorrow. Deuces from Cherry Hill, NJ brahs....
