Here in Wichita

Well, here I am again in a hotel business center. Actually, I did have a rather nice afternoon at the mall, and bookstore. I just wanted to swing by here and check my email, and my facebook scrabble games, and then get on with it. I was going to get my hair cut at the mall. They have a Regis salon. I started to look around at the mall patrons, and decided to forego that and just eat instead. I had a nice subway sandwich and some chips. I had a 6 inch for lunch, and a 6 inch for dinner, but I did eat it all at one time.

The trip thus far has been uneventful. The planes have been so empty (scary) which gives me even more time to read the paper, and get nervous about our economy and the fate of the country. I guess if I do get furloughed, I ought to be happy that Obama is in office. At least my unemployment will be maximized! I really do not have too much fear of getting the axe, but when these flights are so empty it is hard not to start with the "what ifs". OK. fine. It is hard for me not to "what if" anyways.

I have found a fairly difficult transition of returning to work (for the 2nd time). I just hope that I am able to get back in a routine and try not to cry everytime I see a baby on the plane. Working Moms, it gets better... right???

Last night in Co Springs, I got into my room at the Crowne Plaza, (which is not my favorite chain for an entirely different set of reasons!!!) and the bathtub was filled with water. GROSS. You probably think that I requested a new room. I didn't. I just drained the thing and went to bed. I know, GROSS... My alarm clock was askew and went off every 2 hours. I know I should have unplugged it but I wanted to know what time it was whenever my eyes opened. So I just turned it off every 2 hours, rolled over and went back to sleep. This all said, it is 5:30 here in Wichita, and I am off to bed!
