It is 4:00am, I am awake and I have a jetlag hangover. Why is the aftermath of travel so unpleasant? I am continuing to unpack and put away today, but do not want to start doing so at this obscene hour of the morning on a Saturday.

hey you, welcome back! too bad I didn't check lj; I was up till about 4:45 last night, and I don't even have the reasonable excuse of having been in Parts Far Away. I should've called you.

Our icons are totally artist/art. My new favourite pairing!

I think we're not built to travel at 500 miles an hour. Don't you wish there were still steamships?

On the one hand, I very, very much do as I believe that I would do very well on a steamship. I would be one of those dashing but elegant ladies strolling the decks with a scarf tossed casually about my shoulders and my hair carelessly windswept. I might, on very sunny days, also be carrying a parasol. Then, at night, I would change into a glamorous evening gown and dine at the Captain's table, entertaining the collected company with stories of my many travels. Somewhere along the way, a man my equal in dashing, elegance, sophistication, and worldliness would sweep me off my feet and we would travel off together into exotic sunsets to live happily (if not entirely stationarily) ever after.

On the other hand, I do believe I would travel much less and to far fewer places if it truly did take a month to get everywhere.

Still, SOME steamship travel would be very nice! Just as an occasional break from the jetlag in favour of some old fashioned jetsetting. ;)

Oh, is that the kind of girl you are! Out of sight, out of mind? "BFF? Never heard of her. No bells ringing here."

(i wish i were there, too -- or you, here)

our love is so long-distance angsty. i will write you letters dotted with real tears. and rose petals.

I really must call you tomorrow -- I would tonight, but there is company and pad thai coming. I am excited about the pad thai. I am also repeating myself, but news of pad thai bears repeating.

I wish to have my tears in real time! The rose petals you may send in the post.
