Jet Lag

Okay okay okay... So yes it's been a while since I've posted anything. I've had a busy couple months. December I went home again for the first time in quite a long time. Got to see the family for Christmas, it was nice. I think mother probably weighs less than I do now. I swear I almost didn't recognize her at the airport!

As soon as I got home from Illinois I turned around and almost immediately headed overseas. I spent almost three weeks working in Abu-Dhabi. Let me tell you, that place was AMAZING. It was the most luxurious hotel I've ever stayed in. I don't think I'll ever be able to afford to stay in some place as nice in my life. The hotel had almost a 2km private beach, two heated swimming pools, one with water-slides and a "lazy river." I spent as much of my free time as I could out laying on the beach or by the pool working on my tan. As soon as I got back everyone was commenting on how nice and tan I looked. Its nice in the middle of January.

Well I think I just might finally be over all the jet lag from the flight from Abu-Dhabi to DC. I made the mistake of sleeping almost the entire flight. I forgot to take a book with me, so I wasn't about to sit on that C-17 and stare at the pallets of equipment for 18 hours, so I decided to take some Tylenol PM and make the flight go a little quicker.

Well I'm well into my Twilight Zone marathon and I need to find something somewhat productive to do today before I head into work tonight. Stay tuned, maybe I'll write more.
