Back on the chain gang...

Back at work after 2 weeks. Yesterday was a breeze, sifting thru e-mail, mail, phone mail, etc.
Today, well...
All I can say is that it's fairly easy to fall into a lifestyle of late wakeups, big-ass breakfassess, and afternoon naps.
Now, in front of this box all day, behind a window I cannot open, I realize that the reason is one of what is normal behavior in this world and what is not. Will total anarchy ever happen in my lifetime?
O well.
I will offer a write up our odyssey soon.

Pre-Game Jitters

We've got the little bit of stress that always happens before you leave town. Laundry, cat sitter, ride to BWI at 4 a.m., suit, cash, garbage, mail, etc.

I'm really ready to get away for a spell. The ipod is loaded, the itrip is ready, the rental has XM. LET'S GIT IT ON!!!

I've got my 6-month review here at work in a few minutes. I think this is where I get my $5,000 cash bonus.

OK thanks for all the travel tips, dear readers. I will post soon.

HOT

I know, I suck. I haven't been keeping you posted.

But, it's hot. Back of the neck, sweaty hot. Sprawl yourself on the floor under the fan hot.

We're going out of town at the end of the week. The trip will go like this: fly into Madison, WI for the weekend, Minneapolis on Sunday, through the state to Bismarck, across the rest of North Dakota to a wedding in Montana for the weekend. Then leave on Sunday out of Montana, through that little corner of Wyoming, fly out of Rapid City.

We've intentionally chosen a route that we have never been. E-mail me any tips or well wishes, faithful readers.
