Check And Cross-check
Today was a big travel day – taking four (exceptional!) students to Washington, DC, for two speech tournaments this weekend. Highlights of the trip include:
* Meeting at 3:00am to go to the airport.
* Flying south (to Phoenix) before flying east to DC.
* The four-hour layover in Phoenix, which allowed for time to enjoy California Pizza Kitchen and the carpeted floor of gate A19.
* Driving around the Fairfax, Virginia area for over an hour and a half looking for the hotel (Mapquest sucks!). We called the hotel three times and stopped three times to ask people for directions.
* Hanging out with some of the coolest people that I know.

That's why you have to use yahoo maps! The hotel people couldn't tell the difference between their *** and a hole in the ground.
New rule for all future hotel front-staff flunkies: Learn the area our your hotel!! If you don't, I'll come after you with a shoe!!
