Okay, so it creeps me out to blog about where I'm staying, etc. Now, I'm checking out so I'm blogging this crap.
Okay, so the conference room (blogged below) has REMAINED my room. I have the attached bedroom. I was told "No, we're overbooked. Sorry. Just shut the door to the conference room." Okay, fine. Whatever. For example's sake, conf room is 100 and my bedroom is 101. As in.. they have separate numbers and separate accesses from hallway.
Here's my question: What brain surgeon hotel worker didnt just shut off the conference room and give me a key to the bedroom part? I would have never been the wiser. But noooo.. from that point on, room service, my USA Today and my hotel bill was delivered to...the conference room. I have to walk through to grab it. SO.ANNOYING.
Aside from that, two mornings ago, I hear people trying to get in my bedroom. I open the door from the hallway and find two guys from the hotel "changing the locks" b/c the master broke. Okay.. so I'm freaked at this point. I was like "WHAT IS GOING ON?" But, I was running late. So, fine. Change the damn card reader/lock. Then, I get a knock on the door. Them again. "Hey, ma'am, can you let us in the conference room? We have a meeting in there in 10 minutes."
WHAT?! WHAT?! Do you REALIZE how dumb this is? *sigh*
I do it. I leave for my meetings. I come back. Shocker, but my card doesnt work in my door. So, I have to go back down. They make me ANOTHER key...which also doesnt work. I go BACK down...the girl comes up with me and her master doesnt work. To cut this short, I finally got a key, but I was angry. Patient, but angry.
The saga continued yesterday when my key-once again-didnt work.
The best part...haha...everyone acts like this is MY fault. "Why do you have that room?" I DONTFREAKINGKNOW! Then, they give a perplexed look and a "hmm..."
Okay.. so...I go next door to the conference room to get my bill this morning (ugh) and see....THEY CHARGED ME FOR THE CONFERENCE ROOM!!
Are.you.kidding.
Mind you, since I left the law firm, my nerves are at a much healthier level (flashbacks to losing my sh*t at random times...deserved...but still...I dont like it.) But, someone downstairs is about to get an earful. I would expect them to COMP something for the inconvenience not charge me MORE. And that is exactly what I'm going to say.
Anyway...you know what else is weird... how everyone, everywhere on tv is talking about Twitter. But they talk about it in that "I'm not really cool but I'm trying to be by talking about this more than I should" way. It's weird. This morning, Kathy Lee is talking about it. It's creeping me out. Hell, Twitter kinda creeps me out. (I know some of you love it. I just cant get into it).
And finally, pray for good weather on my drive home! I'm looking at the words "Blizzard warning" on my tv screen. Um. Nervous. Off to see history in the making...Topeka history that is! Hey, for those who don't know, Topeka is where Brown vs. Board was occured! :)
Looking forward to a nice, relaxing dinner tonight upon my return. :) Hopefully weather will allow that to happen!!!

Uh, comment above me? Weird. I am very irritated for you and your hotel fiasco(s). I hope that you give them a piece of your mind!!
DUDE. that shit sucks. honestly, though, and this is meant with absolutely NO animosity: who else would that happen to besides you? probably no one. i don't know why, but you are a magnet for "stuff that only happens on tv." blessing? curse? your thoughts? :)
safe trip home, love. xo
i dunno jax, is there something written on your forehead? how DO you manage to get into these situations? hmm? (love love and will reply to your email soon, very soon...). ps. twitter creeps me out, too.
haha... I agree. Weird things DO happen to lil ol me and thankfully they're more bizarre than actually bad... Ah, hotel fiascos...haha.. :) Lauryl, no worries on writing me back! It's cool! :)
And now I'm watching the snow fall...as in a lot of snow...in late March.. here. WTH?!!!!
Dude - sorry I didn't get to comment on this before, but what UTTER BS! I don't understand how someone could have a meeting in there if they were attempting to charge it to YOU. what a cluster. glad you are back home safe!
sounds like something that falls under my luck...I would love to type that letter to management...lol
Hope your trip was safe! We drove through ice and snow.
Oh and Twitter, not for me either!
