Hot-lanta....
So I have finally arrived in Hot-lanta...which will be known as Atlanta from now on....for the first of 5 weeks of a business trip. I'm staying in a hotel in the Buckhead section of town, which from what I gather is one of the nicest and expensive areas to live. On my way to the office in the morning, I drive down this road that has "executive" homes for sale. Needless to say, they are fucking huge and set in beautiful wooded lots. Tonight, I am going to go out to a beer bar that's 10 miles or so from the hotel. It sucks that I am going to drink AND have to be the designated driver... oh well. I'll keep it to three with dinner and I'll be good to go.
On the 16th, I'm going to be flying down to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. I'm pretty excited about it. I'm acutally going to visit with Brad who lives in Baton Rouge, but we're going to hit up N'Orleans for a few nights. I'm going to keep myself in check, but I'm sure that we'll have a good time no matter what. Hell, it'll be Brad and I hanging out, when is that not a good time?
Speaking of Brad and I hanging out, we just started talking about it, but I think that we're going to plan a late summer trip over to Europe. I have no idea where we are going to go, but I think that we're going to attempt to see some of the Eastern European countries. I hear that Prague is nice. We're going to plan a bit more of that when I go down to visit. Exciting times.
Tomorrow I am going to be going out to dinner with two co-workers that are in the Atlanta office, so that'll be nice to get out and see the town. Additionally, I spoke to Jason, a co-worker that lives here in Atlanta, and told him that in a few weeks I was going to have to stay for a weekend, and he offered to give a tour of the city, or at least the nightlife around his place. That'll be nice to see the area.
Anyway, it's 5:45ish, and I think that I'm safe to head out for the day. I've been working my butt off at work, and I have another two weeks of lots of work to go, so I think it's about time I head out and go workout at the hotel, then head over to the beer bar.
