Profile: Mid-20s/Female/Married I'm an executive at a sofware company in Southern California and travel the country doing consulting for my clients. Much of my time is spent at the Church of Scientology or on the computer or playing badminton (that's my excercise). My blog will cover all sorts of random things that occur in my life and whatever is on my mind. Enjoy.

Here we go again... another travel marathon. In the next 3-4 weeks, I'll be visiting something on the order of 6 cities. I'll be headed to Rocky Hill, Connecticut; Frederick, Maryland; Portland, Oregon; Toronto, Canada; Wilmington, Ohio and a quick stay in Los Angeles for the Veterans Day holiday weekend before heading out again. I'll be packing heavy this next trip.
