Miami, FL

Well! It has been a few weeks since I did any traveling for work. This seems like a pretty routine trip -- the property has no idea why they keep failing audits, but their files are terrible, etc. I've picked up on some good gossip in the office (baby mama this, baby daddy that), but it's nothing too out of the ordinary.

We're staying about 10 miles of strip malls away, across the street from the University of Miami. When I first arrived, my crazy shuttle driver said I should lie everywhere I go and get a student discount! He also told me I look like I'm 16, no one wants to drive through Little Havana because Cuban immigrants get cars 12 hours after they get to America, and that he would never go on a senior trip in high school where you had to wear matching tshirts 'unless it was to jail!' Whatever that means.

I took a jog around the UM campus yesterday... this must be the short-shorts capitol of the nation. I'm sure they knew I'm from out of town based on my Five Ultimate shorts. They have a lakefill type creation in the middle of their campus, too! Except theirs is ringed with palm trees and Florida.

Also of note: I have seen five geckos, and two probably psych-out geckos from the corner of my eye. Wildlife!
