Top ten things I have learned on this trip, in five minutes or less, because that's how much time I have left on this internet card.
10) If there is a slight chance you will be shipped off to California for work, pack your bags early, because they might put tell you at noon that you have to be on a flight at five.
9) Southern California is, like, 45 degrees warmer than Quebec.
8) Travelling with four married men in their fourties, fifties, and sixties, can lead to slightly uncomfortable situations.
7) If you shut up and observe, you'll learn more, and people will think you're scary. Or shy.
6) If you wear a suit, people take you seriously.
5) They have irons in hotels.
4) You shouldn't pack your laundry when it's wet, even if you do have to catch a flight.
3) I have less than nothing to contribute to conversations about fishing. Especially after 45 minutes.
2) After dark, even in ritzy Marina del Rey, you can't go running, walking, wandering, exploring, photoging, or doing anything interesting at all really.
1) Business travel, even though it's paid for, is way less fun than vacation. However, company credit cards are fun.
Back in the frigid wasteland on Saturday night.

Any chance you'll get to connect with your friends, at least?

Yes. Never, ever pack wet laundry. I found this out after going for about a week with some slightly damp jeans in a haversack. It breeds its own civilization of funk.
