Where am I?
Dec. 23rd, 2005 02:20 pmIf you said "at the airport", You'd be WRONG! I'm at work. It seems that when Esther said yesterday "oh dont worry about that job till next year" she didnt mean "because the client isnt expecting it till then", she actually meant "stop bugging me, I just want to go home".
So today we have one panicked client leaving messages on the phone at work, one very grumpy Growler having to do the work, and one conspicuously absent Esther. Grrr...
Actually, I'm not all that grumpy, as its distracting me from the waiting. Wanna go NOW!!!

Stolen time
Dec. 23rd, 2005 11:32 pmI'm here at LAX in the most horrible lounge- but I've got a vague connection to Air China's wireless. I'd go ask if I may have permission to use it but I'd probably get shot or something.
It's hotter here than it is in our summer- apparently it's 21c outside! The flight went well, I slept for most of it, greatly assisted by a cute beardytrolley dolley who served me glasses full of gin. I watched "the worlds fastest indian", complete with "the worlds strangest kiwi accent", which was actually not bad. And then I watched "charlie and the chocolate factory" which was what finally sent me to sleep... I felt really safe on teh flight too, because both my doctors were sitting across the aisle from me. :-)
The customs droid was amusing- he asked where I was staying, I said "anchorage" and he went "What the hell are you gonna do up there?!?... err, Sorry sir, I mean, what is the purpose of your visit?"
I didnt have the heart to tell him I hoped to stay in bed for most of it...
Gettin REAL excited now!!!
