I AM HOME!

My head is aching and spinning. I have two clocks on my desk and still don't know what time it is. I made a shopping list today, and here were the first two items:

Effervescent Pain Relief
Perscription
I knew that second item was spelled incorrectly, and spent some considerable time trying to figure out (a) why I should care since this was a shopping list written to me, and (b) how to spell the damned word. Eventually, I figured it out. Ironically, I had no trouble spelling "Effervescent," when I could have written "Alka-Seltzer." They say the jet lag is worse going west to east, and right now, I believe it.

I have been living for three months in an apartment smaller than my kitchen. Now, I am free to roam the wild expanses of our glorious home. I ran a lap around the first floor last night, JUST BECAUSE I COULD! It's cold here, which makes it chilly to watch the Daewoo, but I may take a comforter down there and tough it out. I shall now have a bagel.

Of course, your kitchen is bigger than most apartments, so that might not mean that apartment was unusually small. ;-)

Welcome back.
