So, in case you were wondering we did make it back safely on Tuesday night. It's certainly been nice to be home. Our dogs remembered us...which is good. And it's nice to be back in our house for a bit and in familiar settings. However, without any work or school to fill my days and with Michelle heading back to work, I've been a bit out of sorts. It's a bit hard to figure out what to do and where to start...I'm sure I'll figure it out soon. In the meantime, I'll try to make up something interesting to blog about in my pretty much boring days...
- Before we left on Tuesday, I surprised Michelle on Monday with a night in London and tickets to the show Dirty Dancing (yes, I am wonderful). The show was pretty good...not amazing...but pretty good. The guy sitting in front of us really enjoyed it...I mean he really enjoyed it, which made me feel better about the whole experience. It was nice to see someone so excited about something. The best part was that the show had some genuinely good moments and some entertainingly cringe-worthy moments of atrocious acting and singing. It was a pleasant mix...
- On a somewhat related note...guess who got tickets to American Idiot on Broadway for January?!?
- Being back in the U.S. is a bit painful. After living abroad for just a short time...I sometimes feel like I was born in the wrong country (or at least region)...from a fitting in with people perspective.
- An egregious oversight on my part last week. Failed to give props to UCF for taking their rightful spot at the top of the state of Florida in college athletics with their CUSA football championship and basketball win over the other state university from the north central part of the state. They would do this while I'm gone...I knew it.
