Missed a connecting flight coming back to AZ from London, and Delta shipped us off to the Fairmont Inn in Salt Lake City at 11PM. I travel for a living, so I at least had my toothbrush and a change of skivvies and socks in my carry-on.
After 14 hours of plane tourture and NOT winding up in my bed at home as planned, I was pretty pissed, as well as exhausted, so I climbed into the sack and set an alarm for 6:30AM. As I mentioned, I travel a lot- 180- 200 days a year either on a tour bus or a hotel room, all over the world- I shake the sheets looking for the big critters (when you find a scorpion in your bed, you have tendancy to check EVERYPLACE, EVERYTIME after that..). So imagine my disgust to wake up an hour later to find myself staring eye-to-pincer with one of these nasty little buggers on my sheets. And not just one- seems that they were having a frat party underneathe the matress pad. Just when I thought I couldn't be more pissed about the airline not getting me to my final destination, then I have to deal with this crap. The girl at the front desk was completely UN-sympathetic, stating that their rooms are regularly sprayed for bugs- until I showed her the little gathering taking place in my room on my phone video.
What got me is that I have been in everything from 5-Stars to No-Stars, and I hadn't run into these bugs before en masse- this epidemic has just exploded this year in hotels and looks like it's gonna get worse. Do yourself a favor and re-make the bed before you snooze

Checking in from Pristina, Kosovo ... no bed bugs!!! If you have ever been to Sarajevo or Belgrade Martin, I imagine Pristina is very similar. The traffic here is CRAZY ... there are no stop signs or stop lights ... you just go. GORGEOUS women everywhere!!!

Be good over there, Chris! The Eastern European women are stunners, but for some reason, the movie HOSTEL always seems to pop into my head when I get over there...

That was one of the last things a friend told me before I left Vegas, don't follow hot chicks to Prague and don't call him if I turn up missing a kidney.
