i had a 9:45 flight to pittsburgh last night...it got delayed an hour...in reality we started boarding the plane at 10:55. I talk to the stewardess and find out that there apparently is a long line to take off 25-30 minutes. We take off at 12:19 (notice not 25-30minutes later)....we land in pittsburgh at 1:02am.

If you've been to pittsburgh you know there is an automatic tram to the baggage/parking area that everyone has to take. Everyone gets off the plane and some dick decides to run for the tram. He gets on the doors close before anyone else gets on so we have to wait for the tram to get back...its now 1:14am. Wait a few minutes for my bags and at 1:22am my bag rolls down the carousel...yay.

I hop in a cab heading downtown and arrive at the hotel at 1:56am after having a deeply strange yet hilarious conversation with a grad student cabbie who was higher than a kite (we got passed by 10-12 cabs because he kept 'freaking out' as he said about the left lane).

I get into my room by 2:07 am and unpack...my suit was packed so i need to steam it now so it doesnt wrinkle. 2:24...im done ironing my suit and hanging up my shirts. I brush my teeth...take out my lenses and its now 2:35am. Time for sleep.

Alarm goes off at 7:40am, i go into the bathroom groggy as hell, splash my face and put my lenses in...at this point i start screaming in pain because i use clear care solution and it hasnt been 6 hours and therefore the solution hasnt fully neutralized...nothing like hydrogen peroxide in the morning to wake you up. I shower...and enjoy my headache thats come on from the searing pain get dressed and meet up with my colleague. We arrive at the firm at about 8:30 and get to work and its felt like an eternity up to this point.

F*ck me!
