it's like an oven in here

i head to vegas tomorrow for a few days, and i'm being an absolute grump about it. if i could pout and stomp my feet and it would make one iota of a difference, i would rock that stomp like nobody's business.

first and mediummost, i am going to man our booth at a large industry trade show. i admit it. i'm spoiled. i love my conferences and my executive retreats. i haven't done a trade show in a really long time, and spending ive days in a 30X30 space isn't all that appealing to me.

second and foremost, if it weren't for the timing on this monster, right now i'd be curled up in front of a netflix video with a man i adore. but, seeing as how i can't really expect the entire trade show to switch it's dates, i have to wait another two weeks for that.

third and leastmost, but still VERY annoying, is the fabulous weather i have to look forward to.



jealous much? then trade me places. i mean are you kidding me with this? 104 and 106 degrees on the two setup days BEFORE they turn on the air conditioning, and the days i'm carting boxes around (i'm not kidding)?

but. i know myself. and i like the adrenaline of having to be ON. i like the energy and the movement, and the not sitting in my chair for 7 1/2 of my 8ish hour workday. and i think my boss and i will try and enjoy ourselves in the off hours. it's been awhile since i've been to vegas, and much has changed. and the lights are so preeety. most of all though, i'm looking forward to this time wednesday night. when i am in my own bed again, two days out from a long weekend, and several days closer to seeing my man. at a minimum, i just hope not to die from heat stroke. wish my luck! ;)
