When I get to the Wyndham, I am checked in by a smarmy guy with a British accent. I am not prejudiced against anyone, but smarmy people really piss me off sometimes. However, he was polite, and gave me all the information I requested. On any other day, I would have called that good service (not great, but good). But his smarminess was not what I needed at that point in time.
I walk down a hallway that seems to take forever to get to the elevators. I go up four flights and walk all the way down the hallway again to get to my room. I grab the ice bucket and wallk all the way down the hallway AGAIN, to get some ice and a can of soda (which was a dollar).
I stick the bucket on the rack and press the button. No ice. There is a small sign off to the side that says it is temporarily out of order. UGHH!!! I walk down a level of stairs and fill the bucket with ice and buy my pop. Then I walk back to my room and called my wife.
We talk for a while and then I started typing my TED Sucks! Blog entries. I can’t post them because I am not about to pay for the Internet connection or go down to the lobby naked so I can use the wireless zone.
Why am I naked? Because TED has my luggage. The only reason I have my notebook is because I had it as a carry on. Since I cannot wear the same socks and underwear two days in row, I washed them in the sink. They’re drying and I will probably have to use a hair dryer and/or the iron to dry them all the way before I go to bed.
TED Sucks!

They set us up in some PHATTY SUITES when my whole family was flying to ABQ for my brother’s wedding and we had weather delays in Chicago. They paid for food, hotel, and private shuttle!
