And I was prepared for you to say that the office closed when you got there! Imagine if that happened? Believe it or not, you were lucky!! I know. I know. Glass is half full. But you did it! Now you know better for the next time. And when you get all those uber orders, you'll be crying because you are happy. So it's all good.

I totally felt your determination, frustration, pain as you described your trek to your room. Thank goodness for tubs with TV and room service! (p.s., I despise all casino towns - TOO much like you said - I need to detoxify just from the smoke, alcohol and noise fumes!). (p.p.s., San Francisco!!!

There's just something about doing it alone and having no one else to share your anger and frustration. You have a wonderful family though (and an equally wonderful waiter). I can't wait till you come to SF!
