On dry land...

maybe_amanda101...only my inner ear/brain still think I'm at sea, despite two intervening airplane rides (remember when going on a plane was a fun experience?) and a harrowing drive home through an attempted blizzard. (Oh human physiology, you are a laugh riot!)
FYI:
- Holland-America cruises - awesome. They try to feed you to death, but it's still awesome.
- meclozine is my friend.
- soaking up the sun while watching civic workers take down Christmas decorations - disconcerting for a Northern hemisphere native, but also awesome.
- several years ago (and I think at least twice) the government of The Turks and Caicos proposed an economic union with Canada. Canada turned them down. Dear Canada, mostly I love you, but that was a dumb idea. Reconsider.
- St. Thomas, USVI - someplace I'd barely ever heard of, but would consider running away to (vacations apparently make me end sentences and clauses with prepositions - oh well!)
- while snorkeling, I swam with a school of squid! SQUID! (It was so much cooler than it sounds. Really.)
- The Bacardi factory in Puetro Rico was CLOSED! This was both the greatest tragedy and keenest disappointment of the trip, cuz, yes, rum is yummy.
So now I am back - what have you all been up to?

Date: 2011-01-31 11:41 pm (UTC)Christmas nearly killed me, between work and the holiday, so I stopped working. Then I felt demoralized and like I hadn't gotten very far and it was all crap. Then I took a second look and it wasn't so bad and I decided to write but this fic showed up and got all demanding, also wheedling that it was very short so it wouldn't take so much time away from the novel anyway.

When/if, send it to the hotmail account.
