Well I'm finally back in the city of Gainesville. After spending three long days in Suwanee, GA for a class (a one day 8 hour straight class) on how to better use the computer software at my job. I thought I was going to have a miserable time there....well the miserable time I had was the driving part and the "incident" that happened on my way back to Gainesville.
First thing I notice upon entering Georgia, was how bad the traffic is. The traffic I experienced there is no where compared to what I had faced when driving around Orlando (let alone the type of traffic I faced in Ft. Lauderdale). If my driving companion (my boss and property manager) and I did not have our GPS device, we would of surely been loss around Atlanta and the surrounding cities.
We had stayed at the Fairfield Inn at Suwanee. My expectation of the place before getting there were real low (show that it sometimes pay not to listen to online reviews....sometimes.) But when I got to my room [King size executive suite--way to hook a brotha up at work], I was pleasantly surprised...really! I had a couch, a fridge [knobs were broken], a microwave [burnt my popcorn--but that's my bad I was focusing on the Ravens vs. Bengal game], and a king size bed. And luckily there were a few resturants around walking distance to the hotel that made eating out a breeze.
The class was alright, it was nothing to lament about. I did learn a few things that I didn't know I could do with the software at the office and it will be a great help in cutting the amount of time and confusion between the Leasing Office and Corporate Office.
But to the ride back home. Now I don't know what part of Georgia, but at some point I was going 22 mph over the speed limit. I think the cop had said he clocked me going 87mph in a 65mph. And all I got was a warning...talk about lucky [knock on wood]. Trust me, I am more surprised than anyone that I got away with that...or am I [evil laughter].
One more odd thing before I end this blog entry tonite....when did Subway added pizza to their menu? On our way back to Gainesville, stopping at a lil' store either in Jasper/ Jennings, FL there was this subway resturant that was serving...pizza. Well, I had to order one and see what it taste like, and I loved. I have yet to see the local Gainesville Subway stores selling them...guess I'm going to have to wait.
well I think that is about it.
I added a video below, I was thinking about this Dave Chappelle skit when I had gotten pulled over by the cops and was thinking how funny it would of been if it had gone down like that.
until next time,
