Travel

Tomorrow I climb into a metal tube which will be flung across eight hundred miles of mountains and deserts, to visit my family... aieeeeeeeeeeeee.

So, needless to say, I won't be answering email, updating my site, or posting on here tomorrow. Shortly after, we turn around and head down to lovely-to-visit San Diego for a few days (mwahahahahah!!), so I will be absent for them too. If I don't show my face by the 20th, send out the hounds...

"My friend Dave has a polar bear
How he came to have it I don't dare
To ask ..."

For some reason I see you being fired out of a cannon. Have fun!

PS: Nice poem.

It's not mine; I heard it on the radio.

I had an image of some sort of hybrid Artemis Fowl/Floo Network transport, with large open windows in the front so you could watch all 800 miles whizz past.

Leavin' on a Jet Plane

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside my door
I hate to turn you on to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
My roomate’s waitin', she's blowin' her horn
Already I'm so fearsome I have to fly

So type some smileys for me
Tell me you'll restart for me
email me like you never thought I’d go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know if I'll be back again
Oh, man, I hate to go

But my sister’s there, my mom and dad
Temps in three digits, I think I’ve been had
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing

Every place I go, I think of you
Every post I post, I’ll post for you
When I come back, I'll wear out your clicky thing

So type those smileys for me
Tell me you'll restart for me
email me like you never thought I’d go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know if I'll be back again
Oh, man, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, let me click you
Close your programs and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave you off
About the times that I won't have to say ...

So type those smileys for me
Tell me you'll restart for me
email me like you never thought I’d go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know if I'll be back again
Oh, man, I hate to go

... which explains what you've written down for music. I need sleep.

I sure hope I'll be back again. Don't stress me out any more!!

Thanks for the song, though.

Ooh!! San Diego's LOVELY! There's an amazing Irish Restaurant in the Gaslamp District I would recommend, but I have forgotten the name. :-( It's about two blocks away from the Convention Center.

Have fun!

Wow! Are you going to be there in time for the Comic-con?

. . . that is some weird imagery there. xD

And have fun! Do wild and exciting things and party late! Or early, whichever! I will miss you quite a lot!

Hello hello!
Not sure if you remember me, but I emailed you a while back! I was the first to comment on your rather lovely Helquisty style. So sorry I never responded. My computer acted up and I had to get a friend (who is now a saint in my book) to fix it. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the M&C chapter fo your site! I get all giddy everytime I look at it! Anywho, cheers! Have fun on whatever form of flying you are embarking on!

That's the whooooole idea.

Well, that and the, er ... maritime museum. |:)

You lucky girl! Please do me a favour, and if you see the Flight crew, tell them Tony says Hi. If you feel like abusing one or more of them in a manner of your choosing, please don't hold back. I mean friendly-style, not real abuse, uh, P.S. Have fun!

Maritime museum? But don't we have some tall boats here right now?

Well, a) not anymore and b)they didn't star in a major motion picture. (Okay, one of them had a kind of supporting role, but that doesn't count.)

I will be sure to bring various blunt intruments with me for the purposes of abusing aviators.
