Work trip highlights
| I'm still tired from my trip, so my trip recap will take the form of bullets tonight. - Yes, as some of you guessed, it was at the La Quinta Resort. Ah-freakin-mazing! - We each had huge rooms with huge balconies, huge bathrooms and lovely fireplaces. - I have a ginormous, comfy and plush bed at home, but the resort's bed was phenomenal. - I worked out three of the four days in the resort's gym on high-tech machines with personal televisions. - I ate fairly sensible meals, given my options, and managed to come back a pound lighter. That happened at the other big work event I attended when I first started with the company. I'd like to make that a tradition. - I met everyone I wanted to meet, especially authors I've been working with virtually for nearly two years. - At Monday night's dinner, they hired a big cover band for entertainment. One of the singers was Deanna, a finalist from Rock Star:INXS. - Tuesday night they shuttled all the event attendees to a bowling alley they rented out. I bowled a pretty good game (115-ish). And then I played some arcade Dance Dance Revolution with a co-worker while wearing my high-heeled boots. I thankfully did not break my ankle and did ok, if I do say so myself. - After returning to LA on Wednesday afternoon, my boss gave us the afternoon off. I spent mine getting a much-needed facial at Dermalogica on Montana. My facial included a mini-massage on my shoulders, neck and arms. I love that place. I need to go more often. (You can see the Yelp review I did the first time I went here.) "This company has a very strict bros before hos policy." - Jack, 30 Rock Labels: co-workers, facial, travel, work, working out |

I've been a lurker on your blog for a little while now. I think I found your blog on theknot. Anyways, I was reading your review on Dermalogica and it definitely sounds like I need to try this place out. I'm wanting to try something different than Burke Williams, and this place sounds great.
Oh how I wish I could go there and get a facial!! I am in desperate need.
Are they hiring?? lol Sounds like you had a great time despite it being a work event. But isn't good to be home? :)
Sounds like a fabulous trip, that's amazing. Glad you had a good time!
Who the heck loses weight on a business trip? You are amazing!
Damn, I wish I worked for a company like that!
çok güzel bir site.
Sometimes I wish I got to travel for my job occasionally. I know it can be tiring though. Congrats on dropping a pound!
That resort sounds awesome. Sounds like it was also a successful event. Good stuff!
I heart La Quinta! We were there a couple years ago...perhaps for the same conference?
what a fun trip!
i so love resort gyms. the hub thinks i'm nuts to work out on vacation, but i love the little tvs ;)
