So Sue Me

I've been sucking at blogging lately. So sue me.

But that is only because my life has taken a turn toward the insanely busy (from just the normal threshold that allows me to actually capture some stuff and then tell you about it).

However, it is all fun stuff.
Like a fun impromtu dinner with our neighbors on Sunday night.
And a Lady Gaga concert on Monday night.
And then heading to Washington DC Tuesday right after work.

Which brings me to my fun "why does this always happen to me travel story"....Do you remember my NYC nightmare trip (Read about it Here)

Well this is not that bad. Not nearly.

But seriously, why does this random stuff always happen to me?
We get to our hotel at around 11:30PM.
Check in. Check. Check. Not a PEEP from the staff about what is awaiting me.
Get to my room. Open it up.
Wow...it's a suite. Did I book the wrong room?
Wait a second....WHERE is the bed? Hmmm.....
Walk back down to lobby where I meet Katie who is also perplexed.
Learn that they are in an 'oversold' situation and have us in what I say were 'glorified living rooms' (but in my made up dreams they are political situation rooms where all the aides gather to do business), and the beds..
Sofa sleepers.

Awesome.

Seriously, nothing like walking into a hotel room and having to LOOK for the bed. Wtf.
And whats more perplexing to me is, why wouldnt' the staff checking us give us a FREAKING HEADS UP?
Like, oh by the way when you walk into your room, you won't actually SEE a bed. But never fear...just throw off the couch cushions..and Voila! Bed.

Needless to say: some 1/2 price discount, free breakfast, free internet and chocolates sent to our room later, we have both secured a normal room with a real bed for our 2nd night....
