Delicious Goodness

So today I pulled my sorry jet lagged butt out of bed. Last night I kept telling myself it is only midnight in Utah and I don't have to get up until 6 . . . NY time. Needless to say this morning was epic. I kept falling asleep and it didn't help I have two beds, so I would get out of one and climbed right into the other. So around 10 AM I finally roll into the office. So I power through their audit. Savage has a very smart business model for most of their contracts. They pass along alot of costs so it is quite easy to audit sites with many pass along costs. This one had more than I had ever seen. So it went fast. They asked me what I wanted for lunch, I said Pizza. I haven't had a good pizza since I left Conneticut (other than Giordano's in Chicago, but that is different). So I was more than excited for it for lunch. But when I saw the menu I came across a piece of goodness I had nearly forgotten about, a Chick Parm grinda, which is a chicken parmigiana sub for those not native to the North East. I should have stuck with the Pizza. It was delicious though.


So after lunch I decided it was too early to go back to the hotel and I just took a quick trip into downtown Buffalo. Downtown Buffalo is smaller than Salt Lake City. It was kinda neat, just driving around. I finally found this little war memorial museum down by the water. It was kinda cool walking around and seeing the ships. Sorry no upclose pictures. I wasn't about to pay $9 for a self guided tour.

This is for Greg. I know you'll would appreciate this.

So after wandering around by the water I went home to destroy the jet lag.

I took a good nap, had a good run, and even started studying for the GMAT. I absolutely hate the English language, it is the bain of my existence. I would rather cut my own fingers and toes off than study English. But I need to take the GMAT just in case I don't get into BYU's MACC program. So I am sucking it up and doing it.

It was about 8 and I was getting hungry so I went to a place over by the water that was recommended by the manager of the office I audited today.

I got in there and it was an old school Italian joint. I order eggplant parm. I love the stuff, ever since Sandy Pirro made me a whole mess in Middletown once. As I am sitting there I see a sign that says we only take cash, so I tell the lady to cancel my order. Best decision I made all night. I went home and ordered this goodness.

When I went to dip the wings they wouldn't go into the bleu cheese sauce because there was a chunk of bleu cheese the size of a golf ball in the bottom. It was so good.

Being in Buffalo today has made me think a lot about Connecticut, seeing three family homes, italian places, the water, the green, the delicious food and even the humidity which I didn't mind today. I love to claim Connecticut. It is such a great place to live. Driving around Buffalo today I caught myself thinking, why haven't I been back yet? I am glad I waited though. I think I may return at the end of all of this. I will start looking around at tickets.

Tomorrow is a big day. I can't wait.
