I travel to some fascinating places for work. Today was Washington DC. Problem is that I was in and out in a day. Woke up at 4:30 to stand in a long security line before catching an an early plane. Stand in taxi line, get to client, work for 6 hours, sit in traffic back to the airport, miss scheduled flight, eat bad airport food, get home at 10. The thing is that I do this several times a month. Wish I got to see some of the cities I visit. Washington is one of my favs.
In the could be worse category, at least I was not one of the people at O’Hare waiting to go somewhere as I was heading home. The place was packed. One 40ish couple commandeered some floor space, stretched out and fell asleep. I need to carry a camera with me. The image was priceless.
I did get home in time to talk baseball with my son before he went to sleep (Cubs resigned Ramirez and Woods). Sleep sounds good. My turn now.
