Did I Mention.....



....that I'm traveling for work?  I don't think I did. 

Well, I am.  Traveling.

I had to wait for quite a while to check in to my hotel room this evening.  They rewarded me for my patience by giving me the largest room in the hotel, I believe.  The largest room, with the largest bed.  Is a California King as big as they come?  If so, that's what I've got.

My bed has no fewer than 25 gold tassel decorative pillows on it.  The wallpaper is gold toile.  There are 11 lamps in my room.  And a Victorian-ish writing desk and chair. 

I put on my new running shoes and went for a jog.  In my room. 

It's actually a little bit creepy. To have a room this big.  For just me.

I may or may not have spent my retirement fund at the shoppes tonight.  I'll fill you in when I return.

Enjoy your big room! I always feel dainty in a big room so I love that. Because that's the only place I can ever be described as "dainty".

For me there is nothing more annoying than dozens of useless pillows. give me too comfy soft ones and please leave out the decorative gross ones that probably never ever get washed and just get in the way!

Nice! Although I can't say I envy you b/c I would HATE having to travel for work. I'd love it if I could take my husband and my munchkins along!
