Southern Comfort

So I embarked on the next step of my graduate school search this morning. My flight from Columbus to D.C. literally only had 15 people on it. That meant I had noone sitting in front beside, or directly behind me. It was great to spread out. Then once I finally got to GA, I saw real sunlight for the first time in weeks. I walked around without a jacket or heavy coat and it was amazing. Then I found out where I was staying for the night. I thought I would be crashing on a couch of a current GA but they got me a hotel.

In my giant room (almost bigger than my whole apartment), I have a king size bed, a sleeper sofa, a coffee table, a 45" HD TV, a DVD player with free rentals at the front desk, a computer in my room with internet, a fridge, microwave, and free coffee. My bathroom is about the size of my room at home. It has a shower and bathtub with jets...plus it has a TV in the bathroom. Holy cow!! I get a free breakfast buffet in the morning too. It's incredible. And all for $64. It was worth the plane ticket to get a hotel suite like this.

I hope tomorrow goes well. I would love to have an offer on the table, even if it turns out I go somewhere else. I'm kindof excited and nervous all at the same time.

Knock 'em dead, stud! Remember, your greatest weakness is that you work too hard. Or you're simply too awesome. PS -- There's a racoon in your room. Deal with it when you come back, we shut it up in there. PPS -- That was only a metaphor. PPPS -- But it really happened. More PS -- Just kidding.
