Life start #5

The title of this blog is a bit of an inside joke from a recent trip to Pittsburgh and a crazy shuttle driver, but it got me thinking. This man was in his 50s/60s and he claimed to be on his 6th life restart to which we all found a very odd announcement but managed to keep the laughs to ourselves (temporarily). I am 27. I have been out of college for 5 years. I am on my 5th job change (but only the 4th company- if that makes it sound any better?). I don't think that's normal. Maybe the shuttle driver should have been laughing at me.

I have been lured back to the lucrative consultant route: road warrior, suits, and suitcases. My life is back on the road. Perhaps my blog should no longer be devoted to the boring things going on in my life but instead my version of "Up in the Air" and life on the road as a hotel and airline point whore. It's an interesting lifestyle although many people I know have also experienced it.

It's been 9 months since I've last traveled and as anyone with status knows... it doesn't last. Status expires after one year which means I have 3 months to log enough travel to maintain status or I get demoted. Not a fan of that happening. It's hard to leave the good life once you've got it.. I need my free water bottles!

Time to book some flights...
