Tailor was so excited to get prizes from my trip to Chicago. I would talk to her every night on the phone and she would ask "did you find my prize yet?" and I would say "not yet honey, hopefully in a few days". That is what got her through me being gone I think. So I first went to the horrible gift shop in the hotel, my heck it was a Merriot, you would think they would have something decent. I found a few cheap (dumb) things but then we went to eat right next to a mall and one of my friends came with me to get T something out of American Greatings. I found her a T-shirt and a little yellow school bus that says Chicago (that was her favorite thing!). Chicago was pretty fun, I got to eat at really great places, try Chicago style pizza, get to know my co-workers better and laughed A LOT! The lady that I roomed with was GREAT! we would stay up until 1:00 or 2:00 in the morning just talking, that was the first time we ever really talked, it was great. It was work but it was fun work, the convention has huge and fun. We always went to the same place for lunch the whole time we were there, by the time we left the waiters all knew who we were and were very nice and good at their jobs. BUT I guess that was my last trip since I am no longer working at SEI starting August 25th. BUT I am ready to move on, I know I was only there for 6 months but that was long enough.
