My hotel room has a mirror in front of the sink in the bathroom and a mirror on the door immediately opposite the sink. It also has a very heavy door that closes slowly and silently automatically.

I can't tell you how many times already I've gone to the bathroom to do a general looking-not-to-messed-up check and have turned around and been freaked out by my own reflection in the already-shut door, or have been spooked by seeing unexpected movement behind me in the closed door mirror.

I never claimed to be the brightest bulb in the circuit, but in my defense I'm not so used to doors with mirrors closing automatically, and reflections suddenly being there where there were none before.

Der...

P.S. To all the peeps in cold MN, I'm sorry. It's downright lovely here. I have a view of the marina. *ducking and dodging*

If you're going to be back in town before this weekend, you'll get some of this lovely weather too. The average high on Thursday-Friday-Saturday, according to the paper, is going to be 9. Enjoy!

Oh, but I'll be going right from here to Scottsdale, AZ.

It's okay to hate me for that a bit.

When I get back on Friday next, I'm going out CC skiing the next day. It's going to be a system shock.

. . . they're saying we won't make it back into the 20's for at least a week. *wicked grin*

any chance you might drive 120 miles north before you head back to the cold?

I wish--but we fly directly to Scottsdale.

It is beautiful, and yes, I am a big meanie--but I'm an inadvertent meanie--I can't help it, really. I just go where the client wants me to go.
