March 13th – Travel Is An Adventure

March 13, 2010 at 2:15 pm

I have never been so glad to be in an airport.  The fast pace of this trip has worn be down and I can’t wait to get home.  My coworkers and I spent every night in one bar or another.  Between the smoke and alcohol I am sure I set myself back a few weeks.  I am upset that I put myself in a situation where I was making unhealthy choices to be part of “the team”.  While there were no drugs involved, the circumstances were much the same.  Making bad choices to be “cool” is a pattern of behavior that scares the heck out of me.  I know better and will definitely find a way to opt out of future bonding experiences without seeming like not part of the team.  I think that I am going to just be honest and tell them I enjoy being part of the team but that isn’t my lifestyle.

On another note, I left my phone back at the hotel so please do not be alarmed if you have trouble getting in touch with me.  The hotel is sending the phone express and I promise to answer all voice mails and text messages as soon as my phone arrives.

To compound my frustration, I just found out my flight has been delayed so I am going to miss my connecting flight.  I trying to re-book the flight but it looks like I will stuck in Denver.   Travel is always and adventure.
