We made it to Austin.  I’m glad that we’re here and not on the road still… it was a looooong drive.  A bit of construction, plenty of bad drivers and driving half of it after dark made for a longer than expected drive.  We had fun on the road though.  Matt bought lots of fruit and granola bars for us to snack on.  Good times.

So we pull into town, find our hotel and check-in.  As the guy was giving me the door cards, I asked if we had a non-smoking room and he told me that they had none left.  So that’s why the room was discounted online.  Sonuva.  I couldn’t very well argue with him so we walked up the stairs and were hit by a wave of stink from the smokers wing.  Danggit.  We walk into the room, it smells like a wet ashtray.  Eff Crowne Plaza.

Next, we go to the lounge.  Tonic water is flat… emmmm… yum.  Matt ordered a beer.  Also flat.  We are so loving this place right now.  Eff Crowne Plaza’s lounge.

We’re back in our room now and apparently the smoker in the adjoining room will be coughing up a lung all night.  The absurdity of it is making me laugh. I’m going to go put some Vics vapor rub under my nose and sleep.  Eff smokers.

Good night.
