April Fools Day

Ugh, I hate this "holiday". And it's not even a real holiday! It's not like I get to take off work so that I can frolick with my friends and play a bunch of jokes on them all day. Nope I have to go to work, just like any other week-day and I don't like it. I'm so eager for tomorrow! I can't wait for 5:00 today! I have had the ever-so-busy morning of catching up on personal emails and facebook and twitter, followed by my daily blog reading and a little bit of "work", also known as "billing" yuck. I technically should have been done with billing yesterday but since I worked for 11 hours straight I didn't quite get around to it. But at 5:00 today, my weekend starts and I couldn't be more thrilled!

Back from my business trip...

So Tuesday afternoon I had the pleasure of heading north for a day and a half to meet with one of my clients for a 2010 Business Plan meeting. I know what you're thinking: "Oooo, what fun! You get to travel for your job! You must be so special and high-up in authority there - and to think you're only a 20-something! wow!!" But you'd be wrong. Normally I take a trip up north about once every 2-3 months for work, put in some face time with the client and my boss and I always find myself completely and utterly exhausted by the time I get home. I dont know what it is about these trips, whether its flying in a shoe-box, bearing the cold weather, or not getting enough sleep in my comfy hilton-garden-inn king size bed (oh yeah they put us up pretty well), but I always come back from this trip completely drained and feeling like I've been run over by a train 4 times.
