Most important thing for today - it's the kid's birthday!! Wish her a happy birthday if you think about it.

I knew I should have bought a new house. Guess what I came home to? A fucking backed up utility room sink which is backing up to the kitchen. Now I need to call a fucking plumber to figure out what's going on. And no B, I am not waiting for one of your fucking family members to come over and fix it.

So let's back up.

Friday
Went off to the client. Finished day two. This was a really good group. Things they said to me at the end of class:

"Best training ever"
"You made data fun"
"I can't wait to go back to my desk and use this"

So yeah, while it was a pain getting there, it was worth it. I also may have sold them on some one on one onsite mentoring in March. That's pure profit.

Got back to the hotel around 6 and went down to the fish fry. The fish fry is an all you can eat fish (cod, perch, or walleye; baked or fried), potato pancakes, soup, salad, fries, and coleslaw for $12.95. It brings out all of the locals. The restaurant was 80% local, 20% guests. But it was good and the service was okay.

Got back to the room and went to bed at 8:30ish.

Saturday
Up at 1:30, got ready, left at 2:30, arrived at airport at 3. Dropped off the rental car and just found out they raped me. The agent in Chicago told me $300. I thought that was for the entire trip. NOT PER DAY. I just got a bill for $1300 for a car rental. I am going to be in so much fucking trouble. I didn't mean to do this. Fuck me.

Got on my first flight. I was the only elite customer. Was pretty funny. Had two hours to kill and for a good 45 minutes of that I was the only person in the Admiral's club. Boarded my second flight and it was me and one other guy in First Class. We had an entire flight attendant to ourselves and the other guy fell asleep so basically I had my own personal attendant. Suck it coach customers.

Got home, dealt with B and this sink stuff. Can't do fucking laundry because it's all backed up. Went to get stuff to try and flush it. No workie. Went to a library book sale. Got chinese food.

FUCK I am now just so pissed off. I hadn't looked at the Avis bill until now. Fuck. Between that and the sink, this day is going to fucking suck.
