So anyone who has had to travel for business knows that on many levels it is a mjor pain in the ass. Packing, dealing with the airport, living out of a suitcase, eating heavy meals, way too late in the day, etc. Oh yeah and did I forget to mention leaving your family!!! It definitely sucks, because Benajmin is so little and he doesn't understand why Mama isn't there.
On the otherhand when you have the opportunity to travel overnight for one day, it almost feels like a vacation! Since I am in Las Vegas, I slept in by east coast standards, got in a great workout and now I am going to eat a quick breakfast before the convention opens. Just the idea of having a few hours to myself, where I am not obsessing over something in the house or at work is a treat! It makes me feel very fancy...but not fancy enough to pay $20 for the day pass to the gym!! Can you believe that they charge that much to use the gym at the Hard Rock? The pre-40 Kelly would have taken that as a sign that God didn't want me to work out. The 40-year old Kelly knew that was just God's way of saying walk outside for free and use the $20 for slot machine!!! :) I actually think I walked about 5 miles this morning, which means that while I feel great my feet are killing me. So much for wearing my cute heels to the convention. Looks like Mama is hoofing it in sneaks. Oh well....
