1) I get irritated when people think business travel is just like a holiday. Yes, I get to see some great, amazing places with my job but between January 4th and today, I have been home exactly 18 days. I've been on 5 continents and too many airplanes to count. All I really want is some down time. And my bed.
2) I feel like I missed the entire Winter Olympics except for the third period and overtime of the men's gold medal hockey game which was playing at the Canadian embassy here in Australia. But man, what a goal!
3) It is 10 days until A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer (http://www.hopeangercourage.com/) and what amazes me is how some people in my life who know how important this event is to me are silent about it and how some people I barely know are incredibly supportive
4) I love writing. I love writing fiction. And I love working out the characters and their choices in my head. I often feel like I'm just hosting them in my head before they get put down on paper
5) Ever feel like you're on the verge of something great with another person? That if you could just get your respective acts together what waits for you both is amazing? What do you do if obstacles keep appearing? Do you walk away? At what point do your arms get tired of holding that particular torch?
6) Daniel Craig is 42.

We should all take a moment to admire his gifts.7) The second term of school is proving much more challenging than the first. But I will prevail
8) Invictus, the movie, was disappointing. The acting was great but the script was weak and given the story they had to work with, that's an epic fail
9) The pork buns at the Conrad Hotel in Hong Kong are worth the trip
10) The teddy bear they give you to cuddle at the Conrad Hotel in Hong Kong is also worth the trip

just saying Hey .. letting you know you are heard .. and admired
and envied (a tiny bit) but then, your schedule also exhausts me ;-)
I so understand...(although, I suspect your schedule is vastly more demanding). 20 hour days are work - no matter what the setting! That many days of not sleeping in your own bed are painful. Here's hoping for a few weeks of rest and home.
Miss you, love!
