I’m a travelin’ man…


Today I got in to Seattle from Boise shortly after 7:00 am. Just a 1 1/2 hour flight, against the jet stream, getting in Seattle just a half hour after I left Boise due to time changes.

Tomorrow morning I go to Portland, OR (Beaverton to be exact) to start a series of meetings for the Extreme Programming project I’m involved with. I get back on Friday evening. It will be nice to have the weekend in one place, and I’m looking forward to not travelling for awhile. Though, to be honest, the Christmas weekend was actually quite relaxing as far as those things go.

The most stressful part was organizing Grandma’s trip to the Narnia movie last night, which was swamped with people trying to fit the holiday movie into their long day of gift exchanges and boxing day matches. And that wasn’t too bad, we just had to wait out the 5:00 showing for the 7:00, which we used as an opportunity to get Grandma drunk on (1) fat tire beer and a plate of smoky mountain pizza.
