I used to think the idea of business travel was fun. You get to see a new city, and you get paid while you're there. If you're lucky, you get to explore as a tourist for a bit. That lingering notion was dispelled yesterday when I was picked up at 5:45AM and flew to St. Paul, Minnesota in the dead of winter, and returned back home close to midnight. Seventeen hours of travel just for a four-hour meeting. At least I got a great lunch out of it - I couldn't recommend
W.A Frost & Company more. Now I just need a reason to return to St. Paul to have a proper meal there.
Best news of today so far: The Breeders have a new album out on April 8, and I just read that they're playing Webster Hall on June 10! I'm still ashamed to admit I was too lazy to see them when they played at TT's in 2003, the last time they toured. Won't happen again, I promise.
