Made it to Reno. The biggest little city in the world. It's their tagline, don't ask me. Got up around 6:30am yesterday, did some morning stuff, packed up, got B up around 8, and headed down for breakfast. I was not impressed with their breakfast setup. Usually everything is buffet except for a few items. Here you had to ask for pretty much anything other than toast. Whatever. After breakfast while B packed up I went to the bank to get stamps to send out our taxes. I made sure to bring my checkbook with me so I can send them their blood money.
We got on the road around 9:30 and headed to Reno. The drive was pretty boring. It was raining in parts which slowed us down a little but not too bad. As we got into Nevada there was some snow on the Donner pass. Nothing major though. We got into town around 1:30 and had some lunch at Raising Cane's. We also stopped at a toy store we both like, and made an appointment at a piercer for Wednesday. B wants to get her tongue done again and there is a place here that is actually pretty well known.
Got to the hotel a little before 3 and headed to our room. We have a nice corner junior suite that we both realized we have stayed in before. I need to start marking hotel rooms somehow. Like a dot under the desk or something.
On the way in we saw a sign for a show at the El Dorado casino - Footloose. When we got to the hotel and managed to get the world's slowest internet working, we looked up tickets. They were reasonably priced and so we are seeing a show on Tuesday. That will be fun.
B took a nap and we went out around 6 for some dinner. Went to Mimi's cafe. On the way back we hit Walgreen's as she needed a couple of things and I needed rockstars for the week.
Got back, relaxed, and went to bed around 10:30.
Day one of four starts in a few hours for me. Luckily the client is right next door. Three days of official training, one of mentoring. I have worked with this group before and it's been good. Here's hoping that stays the same.
