Tampa

I'm in Tampa this week for consultative sales training!*

This is cool because 1) I'm learning a lot about how I should have been doing my job for the past 7 months, 2) Tampa is 45 degrees warmer than Fayetteville right now, and 3) My hotel has a pet alligator behind the parking lot.

Has your hotel ever had a resident alligator? Didn't think so. I call him Barney (Stinson) and I've promised him a loaf of bread tomorrow.

Being in Tampa stinks because 1) I miss my husband, 2) I miss Libby, and 3) I'm having to use my brain for 8 straight hours a day and this is not typical.

Also, Busch Gardens is approximately 2 minutes from where I'm staying. I'm completely sneaking out of class tomorrow to go see some giraffes.

Best,
A
