I have a lot of catching up to do. Unfortunately, that's just as true for work obligations as it is for LJ. But I just wanted to drop in and say that I had a fantastic time in Virginia, I'm super happy for my little sister, and now I'm home in Portland for almost two whole months. That's unprecedented! I work the rest of this week, but get some down time starting Saturday. I'm really looking forward to that.

Work won't be too bad once I get through the piles of things that showed up while I was gone, so I should have time to sit and reflect and tell stories soon.

Our flight was two hours late last night because of clogged toilets. Fun!

Anyway...real update to follow.

Perhaps I overestimated how busy I would be today. Or perhaps I correctly estimated how busy I should be, and I am choosing to blog instead. I'll let you guess.

I'll just do a day-by-day rundown of my trip.
