just got back from my trip a couple of hours ago. i'm pretty wiped out.

the meetings went really well. one of the meetings i set up blossomed into 3 other KEY meetings on very short notice so that was sweet. very, very fortunate the way it worked out.

this morning i arrived at the airport at around 9:15am for an 11:15am departing flight. long story short, about 8 hours later i arrived back in mpls after hanging out in airports and missing a connection blah blah. fun times. i don't get too mad at these kinds of things though, there is really nothing anyone can do. sometimes you have good travel fortunes and other times everything works against you. best to just go with the flow (and buy a lot of magazines).

the miracle was when i drank a 20oz diet c0ke right before getting onto the longest leg (about 2 hours 30 min). i thought i might explode on that flight but somehow i was able to hold it the whole time. geez. i was way in the front (but not in first class) and the lady sitting next to me had a dog (seriously) and blah blah i couldn't get by her very easily. it was just better to try and see if i could make it without wetting my pants. ha ha! whew, i zipped into a bathroom as soon as i got off the plane. stupid diet c0ke, i should not have drank you.

on the exercise front, i drove around for about 20 minutes trying to find a mall because i did not bring my running gear....but then i wanted to exercise so badly once i arrived. figures. i couldn't find the mall before one of my meetings so instead, i ate some really good meals and watched cable tv for a couple days. bleah.

here are my latest search results leading to this site, i thought they were somewhat entertaining.
