Week Five

I am back in Phoenix for the week of July 4, 2006. The main reason I came back is because I have to appear in court. I'm also taking care of some personal business matters, since nothin goes as expected. I've wasted so much time these past months on matters that were so minor they hardly warranted note. Yet, I find myself devoting hours to these minutae.

Boy am I comfortable in my Hampton Inn room. Best bed I've ever slept in alone; free high speed internet access, great soaps/shampoos, nice radio that receives my classical station beautifully. Quiet. And, without a doubt, the best breakfast bar I've ever experienced. I may just stop going out, order in food, and stay in bed.

And study Chairside Snappy, the part of the software program that I will teach first, in Washington DC (July 10-15).

Nice to be back in familiar territory, but I don't see Phoenix as I did before. I'm beginning to recognize how ugly it is now. Especially compared to Atlanta. Now that city was something else: greenery everywhere, really upscale sections with large lots.
