DAMN! I should read the things I write. I fell out for a while, and then when the guys decided they didn't want a post-hearing drink or dinner, I settled in to tv-land. I got bored (or filled with guilt for doing nothing) so I decided it might be a good time to go shopping. I hunted online for where the stores were and headed out.
I should mention I'm in a bright red rental car that I keep calling the fire engine.
I went downtown and it was a quaint kansas college town filled with converted industrial buildings made into art stores, coffee shoppes, bars...and then I realized I had been there before. I had gone there with someone else the last time I was doing hearings here, had incredible beer and food - loved the place so much I wrote about it. Unfortunately, I forgot it about it until I saw it again. Grr.
Not that I really had company to go out with. I could have sat in a coffee shoppe and written or read, feeling like I was somehow connected to the strangers around me when in truth I was just alone. There is no travel that is enjoyable alone.
