Today I took a road trip with 5 of my coworkers to Dallas to attend MetroCon, which is an interior design trade show. Basically, we drove three hours to walk around for 3 hours and scam as much candy and give away bags as possible. I had not really been looking forward to the trip all that much because we were told to dress in "formal business" attire. Let me tell you something about the business culture in Austin. It's pretty damn casual. Think casual Friday and then take it down a pair of flip flops or two. So I had to scramble to find something to wear. Secondly, we were to pull out of the office parking lot at 7am. SEVEN aye em. That is when I normally get up, people. So guess who is one tired woman tonight? But I'm too hopped up on that free candy. I sort of feel like a cranky toddler now.
But the ride home was actually quite fun, possibly due to all the candy and the fact that half the group had margaritas at lunch.
Lazy butt! I'm at work by 7am....Well, during the school year I am. That all starts next week. I'm very much looking forward to no longer having to entertain myself during the day.
