Yup, I have it rough. Some even say that I have the worst job in the world. Ya'll should feel really bad for me. I just got back from Los Angles where I was on a press check overseeing the printing of a new catalog for work. I go quite often throughout the year and, regretfully, I have to stay at the Ritz Carlton in Pasadena while I am there. The horror. This time around I was given a room with a beautiful balcony overlooking the swimming pool to my left and the Japanese Gardens to my right. Add the fact that they turned my bed linens down at night and you have the makings of something downright criminal.
Okay... not you, so much as the cheapskate company that I work for. The most I've ever gotten out of them was a couple nights in an off-strip casino with a bad paint job in Vegas.
Oh, how I am coveting your stay at the Ritz. You lucky, lucky girl, you.
Ya, it's pretty bad when the desk clerk recognizes you when you check in and remembers that you don't like goose-down pillows. The last few times I've stayed there they've remembered to swap out the pillows for me. Am I making you hate me more?
It's oh, so hard, to be humble, when you're perfectly wined and dined. I'm coming with you next time. There's something not quite right about this. I am the MOTHER! The MOTHER!
Wow my envy runneth over ;) You have an amazing job. Enjoy every minute of it. I would ask to stow away in your luggage too, but I am pretty sure I would throw your bag over the 75 lb weight limit!

I hate you.
Not really. But I'm going to stow away in your luggage and come with you next time, dangit.
Wow. Just...wow!!!
Unlike Jenni, I really do hate you.

I'm with Laurie. Not only do I hate you, I'm very jealous of you. ;)
The pictures are great. Now that is a business trip I would like to take.
