Last week I was in Seattle for my customer who is implementing. I wrote this out right when I got back, but since I didn’t finish it right then it didn’t end up getting posted. I’m throwing it up now for the hell of it.

The trip was interesting. I felt a little out of place because it’s still kind of early in Swedish’s implementation and there isn’t a lot for me to do yet. Still, the trip was kind of nice and I did get to meet a few of the people I will be working with later on.

As we went through security at the Madison airport, Jeremy and I ended up grabbing the wrong boarding passes. The result is that I ended up in exit rows on both flights (extra leg room), while Jeremy was at the back of the plane both times. I didn’t realize until we were somewhere over Montana, but it was pretty funny because he was just about the last person off the plane when we landed in Seattle. I had the right seats on the way back – it wasn’t nearly as nice.

There were five of us on the trip, so we ended up taking a limo to our hotel because it was cheaper than two cabs or waiting for a minivan. Our hotel was pretty nice, although I still think it’s ridiculous to pay an extra ten bucks a day for internet when your room already costs $159 a night; I could have stayed at a Holiday Inn and gotten wireless for free.

At this point I was going to continue to talk about what happened on the trip, but I totally got derailed and never finished. If you wanna know more, leave a comment.
