March 13th – Travel Is An Adventure
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.
