Edmontons of fun

Get it? I'm in Edmonton, and there's the suggestion I'm having tons of fun. Edmon-tons of fun. I'm not sure I can make a judgment on the fun, to be honest. Here are the parameters:
  1. I got in a half-hour ago. It's 10:30pm local time. I have to be back at the airport at 4am, so I have to be up at 3:30am. That affords me 5 hrs of sleep.
  2. I just got to use "hrs" instead of "hours".
  3. The hotel's NBC station is based in Spokane, which is an additional hour behind us, so I can watch 30 Rock right now.
  4. But that gives me 4.5 hrs of sleep.
  5. I just got to use "4.5" instead of "four and a half".
  6. The wifi in the hotel is free.
  7. The front desk girl told me that I get two queen beds for the price of one. I told her, "That's great. I'll need the extra bed." She asked if there were more people staying with me, and I said, "Just prostitutes." She didn't think that was funny.
Based on the data, I think it's a wash.
