Y4 D96

You know how I have said no good story starts with "I had a salad, stayed in, and went to bed at a decent time"? Well, that's why I have no good story this morning. I actually had a salad, stayed in, and went to bed around 10:30. I had an opportunity to go out last night and instead I chose to stay home and be behaved. Also I had absolutely no motivation to leave the house. I really didn't want to be around people.

I had a mediocre day during the day. I was supposed to work on one thing and ended up getting dragged into another all day. Something I wasn't supposed to be working on at all. The upside is we figured out the issue late last night and the burden of fixing it further is fully on the client and not on us. Downside is I lost most of yesterday and have to make that up today.

The kid had her boy toy over yesterday. They went out and did something, then came back, banged, watched TV, and pretty much made me feel like I was intruding even though it's my fucking house and I pay the rent around here. One of the reasons I went to bed when I did. I was tired of feeling lonely and bored and figured I could just pass out. Unfortunately emails kept coming through and while I was in the bedroom at 9:40, it was almost another hour before I was able to sleep.

September is looking to be a real bitch. Here's my travel schedule tentatively for the month:


9/3 - 9/7: Harrisburg PA
9/10 - 9/14: Chattanooga TN
9/23 - 9/28: Reston VA


Three out of four weeks I will be on the road. All east coast. It should put me less than 3,000 miles from the next tier on American and will take me over at Hilton. One more trip before the end of the year and I will have it. I can't max out Hilton at their highest tier, but I will still be at a place where I will get room upgrades, club room access, etc. It's more the airline I want to hit. That will mean major priority boarding, upgrades more frequently especially when I travel on weekends, no normal security line waiting, etc. And I have never been this close. I have been the tier I am now which is nice, but man I want in that next level. It is going to be a stressful month though. Add to that schedule shows and one planned trip to the park and I won't be sleeping much in September.

Time to take the kid to the train. One more day until my new tattoo...
