Today I finally get to go home. Sleep in my bed. Make my own meals. Blah blah blah. I think I gained 10 pounds on this trip between not exercising enough and eating way too much. Plus, the other consultant wanted to go to McDonalds all the time. That food is bloody awful for you. Plus, this guy would drink like 6 cups of coffee a day and go smoke a cigarette every 30 minutes. Then he complained that there is no good food in North America. That’s because you always go to McDonald’s! The consultants love McD’s because it is fast and easy. The other guy that is my office once told me that he doesn’t like subway at all. I would have killed for a subway the past two weeks. At least it’s not McDonald’s.
CSB booked me on Southwestern on the return flight. I had to fly from Boise to Vegas, stop in Pittsburgh and then to Philly. It’s a terrible trip, but it was cheap. I guess I’m spoiled or something I would pay a little more just for the convenience of not having to spend an entire day just to fly across the country. I’m on the Amtrak from Philly to Lancaster now. My total travel time will be something like 14 hours. I could have flown to Germany for that amount of time.
This is my first time flying Southwestern and I’m not that impressed. I’ll have to say I’m not a big fan of having to fight for a seat. Plus, the first leg from Boise to Vegas I got stuck next to a guy that had the worst breath and kept talking to the guy on the other side of me. He also had a real issue with staying on his side of the armrest. He had his legs spread so far that he kept trying to be halfway onto me seat, I had to keep pushing him back. Then the second leg was an hour and a half late.
