Goodbye
London ~ Hello Chicago
==============================
"I'm sittin' in
the railway station, got a ticket for my destination
On a tour of one-night-stands, my suitcase and guitar at hand
And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band"

Okay,
it’s an airport, I've checked my baggage, I haven't played the guitar in years,
and I've been in one place way longer than one night. But you get the point…
It
has been a long trip, productive – to be sure, but long!
Saga
is sure to be missing her daddy as much as I am missing her. I've been missing
my friends, and quite frankly I really need to get back onto my plan! It has
been a month since I was actively following my diet. Although I do not feel any
difference in my clothing, I am pretty sure that I have gained some weight.
I
will have to see when I get back what the damage is. It has been a lovely morning, though! The sun was rising over London as I finished packing and left for the checkout desk.
My
car arrived early, I was still checking out this morning when it arrived. I
guess that is better than the alternative. Already this morning I went to the
pub to check email one last time on their WiFi. And now I am sipping a coffee
at a restaurant in Heathrow, writing my blog entry for the morning and waiting
for the flight to be called.
It
is a good day for flying. Tonight, I sleep in my own bed! Yeah!
Wherever
you are today, I hope you are headed for something good!
