Week of 8/10

Monday and Tuesday work was ok; we got our stuff reviewed and there were no big items. We stayed til 7 cuz they didn't review the 2nd binder; i'm not sure if he has by now.

I left for Minny on Wed and really was impressed by the people and hotel/resort at Duluth/Two Harbors. I walked around the resort along Lake Superior and it was really beautiful. Work was tough, I was almost on tilt from not getting stuff done.

We finished and Coworker didn't book hotel for friday, so we were 45 min from airport. He was leaving at 6, so the Plant Controller hooked him up by offering to drive me in the early morning at 9AM. During that time we were eating, the day before we ate delicious breakfast, then dinner was awesome, taylor the waitress was amazingly beautiful. Next day we walked out of the same breakfast place cuz dude didn't bother w/us. I literally walked in front of him and he said wait a minute. He comes back out with coffee and can't take my order either time he passes me out and into the kitchen. At dinner we saw taylor and realized i shoudl've hollered at her. Other watiress loved me too, but didn't step up either. Horrible. I kinda said something to Taylor, but she asked if i was staying around longer which I wasn't. I think both guys I was with realized I was a bitch at that point.

In the morning, we drove through severe fog and arrived. The flight ended up being delayed an hour; I still could make it to the flight in Minny, but they gave me backup flight at at 2pm anyway (I thought it was at 4).

While I waited I played poker and won, but there was a delay on the big board until 2 but until 4PM when announced over the loudspeaker, so i decided to drive. I had to cancel the 1st leg in order to not have the entire flight cancelled for some reason but went to see rental cars first. I found none at National and Budget, but Hertz had one for $250 to drive. I called the bossman who said ok, but while on the phone some shady guy tapped me and asked if i needed a ride. We had 6 dudes on a shuttle splitting 300, and it took 2.5 hours. At the end of the trip I looked at my ticket and realized my connection was 2PM... and it was already 2:45. I showed up and had to talk the lady at the front of NWA into getting me a seat, she kept saying no can do because the weather prevents it, but i explained to her why not. She obviously couldn't understand but booked me anyway. Ended up getting winked from the stewardess in st. clothes, she was lookin right. I also got smile from a chick on my flight big bosom. Felt good, but no way to capitalize on it!!!

Sylvana picked me up and we rode home. We played some pool and I lost. I suck at pool because i lose at the end, i hit in things during, but lose pressure situations.

We started and didn't finish shawshank . We had a chinese school lunch next morning w/my mom, I made it to WW in like 35 min w/a gas fill up, so sick. Saw albert and his sis. Then gave 2 hr lesson while mom drove sylvana home. The lesson went well. We worked on ground strokes early then it started raining and I said we could start w/serves. He literally hit serves for the next 1.5 hours. It was nasty. We got his serve a lot more consistent and powerful if that even seems possible. It's pretty simple to do; holler at me for a lesson if you need help with that hahaha.
