This happened almost exactly 7 years ago (February 2010). Holy shit does time fly. Feels like 7 months ago. I was 29.
Anyways, since i am back in Arizona visiting and having been lounging at that same hotel (Valley Ho) in South Scottsdale the past few days I felt nostalgic. Enjoy :)
It’s around February 18th 2010 and I am enjoying my last week in the Phoenix area as I had decided to move back to Southern California after a multi-year stint in the Phx/Scottsdale area. ASU and Scottsdale were good to me. ;)
I had quit my job about a week before as was basically doing a “parade lap” week seeing all my friends, and going out, drinking, partying and just doing normal things people do when they’ve lived some place for a while and get ready to move.
