Thunderstorm in Phoenix. Need I say more?

Thunderstorm in Phoenix. Need I say more?

Dear World,

Traveling sucks. Well, okay that needs qualification. 24 hours of in-air time, coupled with literally days of sitting-around-airport/ground transport time sucks. Being hungry, caffeine deprived, sleep deprived, and unable to do anything about it ’cause of your medicine (which also makes you dizzy) sucks. Having two redeye flights in a row compounded by jet lag sucks. Enough of this.

Would I trade it for anything? I would do it several times over. Take your best shot shiny consumerist airport culture! RAAAH!

Enough of that, too. Clearly, since we are in London, we finished orientation in Phoenix, AZ. I think having that put me at ease a lot. I get a pretty good vibe from the group, and think I’m excited for all the potential conflicts to explode and storm (thanks, KG) and resolve into something bigger, faster, stronger, and generally more rad. And I’m good at reading groups. I’m a professional. Just sayin’.

Mmkay, now that the medicine has had time to unseat my equilibrium and settle down, I am going to go eat a long awaited dinner. Peace from London.
