Not a coffee drinker either. I don't need to bow to your bean gods.

For real. I just sleep a lot and have to nap a lot.

My dad's job took him to Columbia, Chile, and Stockholm recently. In the coming months, he'll be in Beijing and Birmingham, Alabama. Particularly excited about that last one.

A standard size container of hummus is single serve right?

And right now, I am precariously balancing on the poverty line. It is brilliant. I ate 9 tacos in 24 hours this weekend with my boy Leps.

when people go cool places for work I get a little jealous, but then again there probably isn't a ton of time for fun and frivolity during work trips. I miss vacations. I'm a little house poor right now. bad decisions in life, I know.

gah hummus is so dangerous. sometimes I try to scoop a little into a tiny bowl for portion control but then I just go back for another little scoop.

My dad is giving two hour-long talks and staying for almost two weeks in Hawaii. Same at most of the other spots: gives Grand Rounds, a couple of smaller talks, and then hangs out and eats free meals. BOSS LIFE.

RTQ def hasn't been on many work trips. They are all about doing little work and enjoying the destination city.

They just give you a plate of all sorts of meat, covered in melted cheese, and a pile of corn tortillas. The organization and service is up to you.

I might be in Detroit for work in a few weeks. I know you're super jealous!
