The No Longer Secret Trip
While my trip to Dallas this past weekend might have been a surprise that I’ve had planned since the beginning of August, I actually have another trip back to Dallas for almost all of next week. It too was secret up until yesterday morning, but I wasn’t going to try to pull two surprise trips in a two week span on my mom. She didn’t exactly believe me at first when I said I would see her again in a week, but considering how much fabrication had to be done in order to pull the first trip off, that’s somewhat understandable.
My next trip is actually one for recruiting purposes at UTD, just like it was said that I’d be involved with around the time I was hired. UTD’s career fair is next Wednesday, so Microsoft is going to have a booth set up there as well as doing some presentations on Thursday night. Since the trip plan would be to fly in Tuesday and fly out Friday, I just expanded that to be Monday night until Sunday since it wouldn’t mean missing any additional work. I may not get to have a rental car for the full time, but both of my parents have already said that I can use theirs for whatever I need. That will be extremely helpful since I plan on going down to visit Jess and Crayton at Baylor on Saturday since I’ll have no other plans to speak of.
