3 Days in the Cali

I was in SoCal this week and just arrived back in Austin. I was out there doing some business development in the construction industry. We manufacture products that are used as ingredients in grouts, mortars, stucco, etc. On Tuesday I arrived and drove over to Rancho Cucamonga to meet with a company that makes concrete patch and floor coatings. I then headed back to my hotel in Irvine and headed to the hotel gym. The damn exercise bike was broken, so I hit the treadmill. Nothing is more boring than a treadmill and to boot, I forgot my iPod at home. On Wednesday I drove down to San Diego in the morning for a meeting with a company that makes stucco. After that, I headed North for a lunch meeting with our distributor in La Palma and then headed to a meeting in Cypress at a company that makes stucco and floor leveling products. We had a great dinner last night in Irvine at a fish restaurant where we had a very nice Cabernet Sauv. (One of my favorites - Heitz Cellars). Today I had a meeting in Santa Fe Springs where I gave a presentation to the company that supplies Home Depot with all of their grout and thin set products. I then headed back to LAX to catch my flight to Austin. I drove home, hung out with The Bug for a bit and am now watching American Idol. I will then watch The Office and My Name is Earl, both of which are taped. What a week. I just want it to be over.

I sweated my ass off on the treadmill doing one of those preprogrammed routines.
