The good:
- Successfully accomplished what I went to do, project-wise.
- Saw old friends and met new ones.
- Got to spend some time with my parents.
- Experienced the circus that is Times Square for seven days straight (not necessarily good, but a good experience I guess) and also visited other parts of the city that I haven't been to in a long time.
- It rained most of the time I was there.
- Not really bad, but unexpected; running into two of my ex-girlfriend's best friends at a bar.
- Feeling like I was in the Matrix every morning while walking from my hotel to the office; everyone looked so pissed off and inanimate.
- It rained most of the time I was there.

If you've ever met my father, you know that he's a pretty funny guy, but this was next-level; "Good luck my son"?

And finally, I'd like to add that this sucks.
