EPILOGUE:
I walked into the hotel after getting out of the car and the lady at the front desk gave me a complimentary disposable razor and a little can of shaving cream. Plus the discount code I used to get the hotel discount worked despite me never having been a member of the Texas PTA. They didn’t even ask me about it!
Thanks for the follow up, and glad things worked out for you here in New Jersey. Y’all come back now, ya hear?
