Chicago and Back
I spent this past Monday through Wednesday in Chicago for work. We were meeting with Microsoft to talk over our SharePoint 2007 implementation. Let me just say that there was a lot of walking, very expensive meals (mmmm, fillet minion), and no free internet at the $350/night hotel. That’s the long and short of it.
The best part (beside the food)? We got certificates to buy stuff from the MS employee store at employee discounts. Even though we had a one time limit of $200, I only spent about $80 (including shipping). But managed to pick up two 512mb memory units for the 360 ($20/each), Lost Odyssey ($25), and Viva PiƱata: Party Animals ($10). There really wasn’t much else that I wanted there.
I’m done spending my $500 gift card. I need to save it for the rest of the year’s games.

Any chance you can use that privilege again? I would love Lost Odyssey for $25!!
