Back to Phoenix

I love Phoenix! I was thinking it might be depressing to live there, but it's such a great place to visit! Anja was in from London for a conference there, so I went out on Saturday to spend the weekend with her. It was fun. I got in in the afternoon, we hung out at the hotel and then went to her conference party at the Wrigley Mansion which included dinner, drinks, desserts, casino games and a photobooth. We had a really good time and then went back to the hotel and crashed.

In the morning we hung out in the pool and then went out to brunch with two of the other conference attendees that Anja knew from the circuit. One of them was local and took us to a good brunch spot and then showed us around ASU's campus, and then we went to Old Town Scottsdale.

That was about all we had time for before I had to hit the road back home. It was fast but it didn't feel too rushed and it was neat to see Anja again so unexpectedly.

Today has been crazy. And it's Monday. And it's been raining. And I did Read Across America today and read to 2nd graders. And I had to give a presentation unexpectedly. And I have to run the discussion group tonight. I just want to go and play with the Khaleesi.
