Conference – Day 2

Day two started with crappy, inedible eggs. Why, why must buffet eggs be so egregiously awful? Thank god for muffins and bacon. That’s probably our comeuppance for all the outrageously fantastic food we’ve been eating all week.

This hotel is so confusing. There’s escalators everywhere and we can never figure out what floor we’re on. Our conference spans four floors and we’re always running up or down and then realizing we’re supposed to be on a different floor. Also, there are two escalators that aren’t working. That kinda pisses us off because then we’re just talking about crappy stairs.

Speaking of stairs. Ava hates elevators and we always get a low floor because she makes us walk the stairs. We’ve learned all kinds of weird things about the inner workings of hotels based on running around in the stair wells. We accidentally met Sherry Thomas in the stair well. She was on her way up and we were on our way down. She seemed breathless and muttered something about the stairwell being part of Inception.

Also we think it’s odd that no employees are concerned that we’re running around in the engineering area of the building – there are scary doors that say 460 Volts in scary capital letters. The good news is that we’re not interested in messing around with any thing down there. Now if there was a caged animal trapped back there that we were interested in that would be a very different story. Fortunately, welding is not something we’re interested in.

New York is probably relieved.
