Invigorated
Hello, you still there? Almost a week without a computer (posted the last two items on someone else's PC when they weren't looking) and you know what? It was actually quite invigorating. There is life outside of the internet and email. You should see how tidy my desk is?
Off to the lovely O'Hare airport in a bit for the Thanksgiving holiday, the most awaited time of year for most Americans. As my boss put it, "It's like a 4-day Sunday. We just eat, drink and watch sport on the telly for four days."
Its a real family time here, so I thought I would go home and spend it with mine. Dinner tomorrow night with one of my best mates and his fiancee. I wonder if conversation will get onto the proposed stag weekend? Bangkok is the latest option. Hmm, we'll see if that one passes the wife and girlfriend test?
Then 3 whole days with my son at my parents in Eastbourne. That'll be great, although he begins every conversation at the moment with a recital of his Christmas list!
Then the Jazz Cafe Sunday night before flying home Monday morning. ¶ 17:47
