I decided that I wanted to combine my coaching trip with a locked-door coding retreat. I'm frustrated with the lack of progress I've made on my own projects, so it seemed like a good idea.

So I left the hotel this morning to find something to eat, and now I'm distracted. The Inner Harbor is like a theme park area. In the middle is the museums and chain or theme restaurants (Hard Rock, ESPN Zone), and there are a ton of cool local places around the fringe. Lots of retail too.

I've been in a road block mode for probably a few months now, getting some testing stuff configured. It's so frustrating. I really do want to write The Best Code Ever(TM) but this is annoying. Working a day gig I don't have the time I used to.

Well, I've gotta get back to it. Three hours before I have to go across the street to coach.
