Innkeeper InnSight, Volume 4

Let’s Check-In, shall we?

I Must Confess…

The New Year brings no resolutions for this Innkeeper. None what-so-ever. I've learned from past years that neither a minor commitment nor a major proclamation for a lifestyle change actually sticks around for much longer than mid-month anyway.

Nope, I will just abstain and save my energy. No new diets, no grand scheme to reduce my daily TV watching hours and those sky diving lessons will have to wait until I’m truly good and ready for them. I will even accept the fact that I will mistakenly write '2010' on every letter, document and memo until at least February, whereas '2011' will undoubtedly be written over strips of Liquid Paper in the meantime. Isn't it interesting that even with all the build-up and festivities that surround the new year, my mind still suffers from a lapse of this vital information when it comes to something as simple as putting a date on a check.. but I digress.

Now please don’t take my casual disregard for this popular annual tradition as a disregard for the new year entirely though. Actually, I look forward to it with optimism for a number of reasons. Among the top of that list is my work with ConfessInns: The Innkeeper Chronicles.

The anniversay of its inception won't come until April, however 2011 now marks the beginning of the second collection of chronicles - a feat due in no small part to my readers and fans who have aided greatly with its evolution from the beginning. Referring to my most dedicated readers as a 'cult following' may be doing a disservice to cults everywhere and is probably only accurate by measure of its numbers. Still, I appreciate your continued support!

And so, if I must resolve anything at all; if I must put ink to paper (or more appropriately: pixels to screens) - it would definitely be to continue posting my ConfessInns and carry-on expanding the Chronicles' reach & community until the next go-around.

Burning Question of the Week

Many inquiries were warm, but here is the burning question the week:

Can the Front Desk tell that I watched dirty movies even though it doesn't print on the bill?

The Answer: Yes. Firstly, the average cost of those dirty movies is twice the cost of a mainstream movie and easily spotted. Secondly, the Front Desk will have direct access to the movie titles you've watched during your stay in case you challenge a charge at checkout - then title can be read aloud to refresh your memory.

Weekly Whisper

Shhh. You didn't hear this from me, but Call-outs are the hot topic of the next Innkeeper Chronicle on Monday.

Thank-you

Happy New Year and sleep well!
