saturday

After not sleeping much Friday night I was pretty ready to hit the road and go to Florida for some baseball! We got to the airport pretty early and ate lunch at BB King's Bar and Grill. Our server was a very crabby lady who put a sweet pickle in my bloody mary. What was she thinking? Yuck. I'm pretty sure if B.B. King ate there he would take his name off the place.

The flight was pretty uneventful except I sat next to a very strange man who interrupted my ipod listening to show me a part in his book about a tsunami. He couldn't believe that this book that was written in 2001 had something about a tsunami in it. After smacking him upside the head I asked him to never interrupt the ipod listening. Then I told him that tsunamis have been around for much longer than 2001 and he should get the internet and read all about it.

We arrived in Tampa and found our rental car. It was a very lovely silver Malibu Maxx . We headed to Lakeland to check into our hotel, the Holiday Inn and Conference Center, and find some dinner. Even though this was the third time I had been to Lakeland, I had no idea where anything was. We ended up eating at Harry's Seafood Bar and Grille in Lakeland. At first the service sucked but when we said something about the sucky service, they bought drinks for us and kissed our asses. Nice.

Traveling is exhausting so I'm pretty sure we went back to the hotel and crashed.

Boring day. I don't think they get much more exciting so if you are reading, you might want to stop.

Nothing like a cup of warm cocoa and JenJen's blog to put you to sleep.
