May 1st 2019. Odd words. 2019. Seriously. Think back to 1999. 1989. 2000 was a trip in itself. Now we're closing in on 2020. Weird.
I have been watching The Goldbergs on Hulu lately. Almost through all of season 4. It's one of those shows which also makes me think about how far things have come but more importantly it makes me envious of people who had more normal childhoods. Hanging with neighborhood kids. Having siblings close in age that you grew up with and messed around with. What's that like? I have no clue. Nor will I ever know. I was alone as a child and not much has changed.
My day started off rough. I have a limited amount of time to eat breakfast in the morinng and I expect it to be out and ready at 6am as advertised. 6:03, nothing. I sat there until 6:20 and they still didn't have food out. I was pissed off. Especially since the woman running it was all whatever about it. Bitch please. I need my food. I was so hungry all day. The hotel did give me 5000 points for my trouble especially when I showed them pictures of what my room looked like when I got back to the hotel later in the day. More on that in a minute.
Spent the day finishing up the documents for the client. Got done around 2:30 and headed to a nearby mall for a bath bomb. When I come back this way in June, I will be staying closer to this mall. It's amazing the difference between the two areas. Where I am is so ghetto and I bet I could get a good deal on crack. Where the mall is it's clean and nice and oh my. There's a Hilton right next door to the mall and I may end up there next time. We shall see. Got my bath bomb but unfortunately it was too early to eat. So I took the back way to the closest Arby's near my hotel since I had a coupon. Mistake. Scary part of town. I was waiting for a cop to pull me over because the only reason someone like me would be in this part of town was if I was looking for drugs. For real. It was frightening.
Got my Arby's and got back to my hotel. Only to find that I guess housekeeping's vacuum broke because my floor was a mess. Crumbs from the prior night all on the floor. Everything was clean too so what the fuck. I showed the desk manager and between that and breakfast issues, he was apologetic. Doesn't help a lot, but it helps.
Watched tv, went to bed around 10.
Today I am going in for final doc review and then deciding what to do. The hotel and car are paid for so I don't want to leave early and waste that. BUT I could just go home and get the sleep. We'll see. I will make a decision based on what time I get out of the office today.
