      "- I spent the last week in sunny San Diego for work. I met up with the rest of our Professional Services leadership team for _meetings_ and an All-Hands presented by our parent company's CEO.\r\n- The journey was just as I remembered it from my last three visits: 15 hours from home to hotel and very dull. I tried and failed to sleep using my new [Trtl](https://uk.trtltravel.com), so instead watched [films](https://letterboxd.com/barryf/films/diary/for/2025/10/) on the little screen and exhausted my podcast backlog.\r\n- Each morning I was in the office in La Jolla before 8am, partly because our office is next door to the hotel, but mainly because of the eight-hour time difference. After long days working I dropped off my backpack in my hotel room and headed back out for dinner and drinks together. As a result this weekend back home I've slept and done very little.\r\n- Food in La Jolla was pretty good. Sushi at [Blue Ocean](https://barryfrost.com/2025/10/yqjxp0jab58), large quantities of Mexican at [Red O](https://barryfrost.com/2025/10/rxsx76u3dj8) and many moreish dim sums after a worthwhile wait at [Din Tai Fung](https://barryfrost.com/2025/10/wt3eke660am). The Rubi club sandwich from nearby [Rubicon Deli](https://rubicondeli.com) was as good as always."
