Of course, I hadn't previously considered that the gate-checked luggage could get stuck in an elevator shaft, thus delaying our flight for 40 minutes while we waited for a mechanic. At least it worked out well for one lucky individual, the guy who was technically twenty minutes late for the flight.
So after a 3:30am wake up, I managed to spend a full work day at the NYC office; my focus was close to nil by 6:00pm. I checked into my corporate apartment, which feels so much better than a hotel room. Although it's a studio, I'm pretty sure it's larger than my own studio in Chicago. And the view of Midtown Manhattan from my 20th floor windows is a little different than the alleys I look out at from home.In a city with such an array of choices, you would think that I set out to find myself some sights and flavors that I can't get at home. Here's a let down for you. I grabbed a box of Whole Foods' version of shells and cheese, a couple of cookies, and made my way back to the apartment to wear pajamas and watch Big Ten/ACC basketball.
I'll try to be more interesting tomorrow. Tonight I'm just out of fuel.
