So far in January I traveled to Houston for a week, Was snowed out of a trip to Philly and Baltimore, and then went to the office for what was supposed to be a 2 day meeting, and ended up staying a whole week.
Weather played a small part in my extended stay, because the other 2 people due in for the meeting couldn't get in. I believe I was on the last flight that made it into NJ before the storm hit. My buddy NICK picked me up at the airport and proceeded to take me to dinner at Cheesecake Factory.. The place was abandoned. By the time we left, it was really coming down, and that night while I slept I believe a total of 19" had fallen. People at the hotel were having to dig out little paths to get into their cars, and then had to dig to back them out of their spots.
I worked in the office on Thursday and Friday, and they asked if I would stay thru the following week to help with a major project, so I canceled my Saturday flight home, extended the hotel, and stayed. Nick picked me up Friday Afternoon and we headed to Five Guys for lunch. YUMMO!
Saturday was bored beyone belief. No one to hang with, and the weather was a little cruddy. I had the hotel shuttle take me to Walmart and bought some clothes, undewear, and toiletries to last me the extra days. I had also been fending off a cold and this wet cold weather was bringing it back twice as strong.
Sunday was sunny but cool, so I headed in NYC and got 9th row seats to see BIlly Elliott on Broadway. My God, So Amazing. I loved it.
Had Dinner at Chevys in TImes Square, and then was going to head to RockBar for some Bearfun, but decided to get back to the hotel before dark, since I have never done public transportation, and I was not wanting to get lost in the big city on the wrong train.
Monday I paid for my day in NYC as I was sicker than sick, and unable to get out of bed once I laid down. Awful. Nothing worst than being sick on the road.
Tuesday, Dinner with Nick ( see picture ) and Ed and packed up in hopes I would get home on Wednesday, which I did. --------------- >>> click for larger version
I always dread going into the office, and then once I go I realize its not so bad and they really do like and appreciate me. Getting to see Nanner makes it so much more fun. We have become great friends, and I think Ed is warming up to me little by little. haha
Now preparing to go to Phoenix on Sunday night. At least it will be warm !!
