Trip to SB

So, I am flying to Santa Barbara for training on a current project within my company. I will be taking over the project from another analyst. Being on a project is paramount in this industry since "being on the shelf" too long can spell doom.

I looking forward to the travel legs of this trip with the same anticipation as a person looks forward to a root canal without novacaine. My boss booked the trip. The route there takes me to ATL, LAX and SBA. The LAX to SBA flight is the worst. I have a middle seat for an almost 5 hour flight. Then, there is the way home... I fly SBA to SLC and then SLC to LAX and then the red eye home. My first flight is @noon and I come home the next day @6am. I am SO not looking forward to this.

Now a break for my whining...

I often spend so much time worrying about how the girls are affected by me not being home that I often forget about the effect it has on my wife. She is one amazing person to put up with me. I really need to do a better job of showing her how important she is to me.
