Will Bridges

So, I'm headed to Front Royal, VA today. Just an hour southwest of Washington DC. That's my home town. I'm really not interested in going except the fact my son's birthday is Tuesday and we are throwing him a big party on Sunday for his brithday. I'm also going to do an in-person training session with one of our Employees in Virginia who is a trainee learning Ruby on Rails. I have a couple clients in the area I want to visit as well. So, I have plenty of reasons to make this wonderful 11 hour journey. The worst thing is my air conditioner is leaking so that won't work on the way up there. I hope it stays somewhat cool.

I am looking forward to seeing some old friends. But every time I stay in Virginia for any more than 3 or 4 days I start to lose my mind, get extremely bored and get depressed from my surroundings. My friends that stayed there really are doing mostly the same shit and not really advancing much. Sometimes that's the most difficult thing to see. I always try to convince them to leave when I see them. Try to motivate them to do more. But they rarely can see beyond their little boring town in northern VA. Viva la Front Royal.
