MISSOURI!
Hey, kids! I'm in Missouri. I got sent here by my job to swap out a server. It was planned to be a 2 day job, but I got it done in 3 hours. I hope nothing goes wrong tomorrow. But, I'll be hanging around just to watch it.
Columbia, MO is apparently a college town. I'm in this hipster cafe that has free wireless access that I found on the WiFi Hotspots List.
Cherry Street Artisan
It's a very cool place with a fireplace, board games, and plush leather couches. I'm drinking this iced tea that has just a hint of fruit in it. I'm not sure which. It is probably raspberry or peach.
See that corner there next to the bookcase next to the fireplace? I'm sitting there. Right where that kid in white t-shirt would be. Except behind me there are no longer lamps. It's now a little statue of a dolphin atop a pedastal. And it's all track lighting.
I just at dinner at the Boone Tavern. I had a nice 12oz prime rib steak with baked potato and caesars salad. The steak was delicious enough..as good as prime rib gets. Even better is that it's expensed and paid for by my company! Woo hoo!
I'm glad I got fired last April. This new job rocks!
