LAX Timekeeping

I came into work really late today, and nobody cared. I had a dentist appointment this morning east of home, and so I had to drive extra far to get to work. My commute ended up taking 2 hours, and so like I said, I came in really late.

Tonight, we're going to Lucky Strike, a nifty-looking bar/lounge/bowling alley in Hollywood. It's one of the highlights of the summer I hear, and it should be fun. I'm a little rusty since my bowling club days in high school, so I think I'll just try to wing it.

Lunch: I went with Jeremy and Bryce to an infrastructure lunch at a nearby hotel. A group of abotu 80 lawyers, engineers, architects, and politicians were having a roundtable discussion there regarding the planned expansion of LAX. I'm a natural fan when it comes to future construction plans, so I went. The food was pretty good, consisting of tortilla soup, meat and rice, and ice cream dessert with coffee. The presentation about the future of LAX was given by a representative of the MTA, and was more interesting than I expected because of all the different plans put forth by different mayoral administrations. Apparently, the infrastructure practice group is more than just bridges.
