I flew up to Dallas yesterday, met with my client (and old friend), and then headed to the hotel. It took me an hour to find the hotel, because it wasn’t the one I usually stay at in Irving, and it really wasn’t easy to find. I stayed at the Candlewood Suites in Irving. It was nice, but not in the best location. There are a bunch of other hotels right there that would be easier to find/get to.

After checking in, I worked a little, then called one of my best friends: Misha. Misha and I met for dinner at the Macaroni Grill in Lewisville for dinner at 8:00. We were there until 10:30, and had a good time enjoying drinks and dinner, and catching up with each other. I kid Misha that I am still living my early 20’s out through him vicariously. It’s always good to see him and hear the latest stories. He has promised to come visit in late March, so I’m going to hold him to that.

Misha gave me my copy of Apple’s new iLife suite, and let me tell you… the new iPhoto does some really cool stuff with books and slideshows, and iMovie looks like it does some great stuff too, though I haven’t played with it yet.

This morning, I got up and worked from the suite (I hate it with clients cancel their appointments at the last minute) until about noon, before heading over to visit a prospective client in downtown Dallas. That was a fun meeting that lastest about an hour and a half. I’m now back at the airport and can’t wait to get home (flying stand-by on an earlier flight hopefully).
