It seems that the travel gods decided that I have not been pious enough, and have decided to punish me on my trip home from Seattle.\u00c2\u00a0 Clearly despite the fact that I never ever travel, Nemo decided that I shall spend more hours away from my family than previously expected.\u00c2\u00a0 As you can imagine, I’m thrilled about the whole thing, and Nikki is too.\u00c2\u00a0 Newark remains a distant destination for now.\u00c2\u00a0 Its not all bad of course, I’m currently sitting in a nice little place called RockBottom in Seattle.\u00c2\u00a0 Not metaphorically (although I am having my 2nd beer), but rather that’s the name of the place. Anyway, Seattle is a good place to be.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s about 10 degrees and overcast, which is winter for Seattle, and by all accounts that’s pretty much paradise when compared to Ottawa or New York for that matter.\u00c2\u00a0 Methinks if I ever make it to Newark it will be much different.<\/p>\n

Good times, now I just need them to end.<\/p>\n
