Continent hopping
Dec. 2nd, 2010 07:02 pmI already had my Christmas vacation tickets when my mom came up with the idea.
My dad turns 80 on Saturday, so she decided to throw a surprise party for him, inviting his friends from across the decades.
As it turned out, the only one who couldn't really make it was the guest of honor's eldest son.
(Hi.)
A quick note to the Senior Partners to get me a few days' leave, some noodling on Delta.com, and here I am, just landed in New York, flying back Sunday afternoon.
And of course, jet-lagged, but whatcha gonna do? The trip's short enough that I'll hopefully be still on Athens time when I go back.
(Oh, and I finally broke down and got an iPod. Dr. Teeth will probably end up completely supplanting my old Pocket PC, Beaker. The ebook store already looks dangerously addictive.
