Back from Chicago

exatronI got back from Chicago last night, and I still feel a bit off. The flight back was completely full and the terminal at O'Hair was really hot, so I couldn't do much drawing.
My first day of training went fairly well, even though I found it hard to pay attention since my last project was testing work.
On Tuesday night, I went to Andy's Jazz Club with a few people from the class. It was a decent place; however, I also learned that my dress shoes aren't made for walking.
I think I caught a minor sinus infection on Tuesday, but it's clearing up now.
The second day was more of the same stuff. I found the training exercise a bit degrading since it had us writing test scripts for how to tie shoes.
After the class, I went directly to the airport since the train was right next to the training site. That led to a bit of a wait, but I was able to get some Chicago style pizza. Buddy's definitely makes pizza better. I also forgot about changing into my boots until after I had checked my bag. My right foot is still a bit sore from all of the walking I did.
Today has been filled with computer-based training and searching my company's website for new project assignments. Thankfully, being unassigned for a bit is normal, and all I have to do is apply for new projects I find, take training, and document what I'm doing.

I'm better than normal. I'm abnormal. The training was completely uneventful.
My company does consulting and contract work, and uses its internal website as a way to centralize the process of assigning people to new projects.
