Good to be home

[steuard]

Kim and I have been out of town for a solid week and a half, so it feels great to finally be back in our own home. Our cats were thrilled to see us when we stumbled in a few minutes ago (noticeably after midnight), though they've now shifted gears to chasing each other around and sniffing dubiously at odors on our bags. (Yes, we admit it: we've been cheating on them with other cats.)

I'll say at least a bit more about the trip eventually, but every part of it went well: the post-wedding celebration of a grad-school friend in Georgia, the jaunt through New Hampshire and Vermont, and the time in Boston visiting a bunch of cool friends there. (Special thanks to ricevermicelli and danceboy for being lovely hosts while we were in town, and to schr0dinger for offering essentially non-stop entertainment whenever we were at home... at least until bedtime. Miss Hotspur Daffodil offered non-stop winning smiles on the same schedule.)

Sadly, in the time since we scheduled this trip, our various pre-semester activities have expanded to fill practically all available space. I've got a meeting at 10am tomorrowthis morning. So I should probably get to bed or something.
