a day in the life

today has been an interesting one.

after sleeping for 3 hours at most i hoped on a morning flight to san francisco.

a 5 hour flight later (and no food on the flight. what's up with that air canada) and i'm ready to hit this awesome pacific city. somehow it took me an hour and a half just to get out of the airport. i got all the way to where i had to buy a train ticket only to realize that there isn't a cash machine there. so i went back to the terminal to get cash. i wait in the long line only to realize that the machine doesn't give any more then $5 change and i was trying to buy a $5 ticket with a $20. so i go get change for my $20 and then back in line. a 30 minute train ride later i'm in downtown san fran.

i have friends here that i'm meeting but due to timing no one could get me from the airport. i have no cell phone so the only way i could get in touch with them to arrange a meet up point and time was to find an internet connection and call them on skype. 2 hours of walking later i find a starbucks (which is a last resort because i'm paying out my ass for this right now) and open a t-mobile hot spot account. great.

then i sit in the starbucks for over an hour calling my friends; no answer. as i write this i have now been sitting in this starbucks for over 2 hours (good god!). i have made all the arrangements i need to make. i have another train to catch in about 3 hours where i will be picked up and driven to sacramento, where the games will really begin.

i chatted with an ex girlfriend who's living in england and i watched the first cut of our major studio dynamic project. both of which were lovely.

this is my current location.

i'm right close to the bay so i think i'll cruise up to a park, grab some dinner and begin re-reading barney's version...for a 3rd time.

this is more of a diary entry then a blog. it's more for my own purposes so that i can properly catalogue this day.

if you did make it all the way through then thank you for braving through the tedium that was my today.
