Arrival

So here I am in Monterey, surfing away on this borrowed laptop, using a thoroughly insecure wireless connection. I had a fine day with SE and SF, tasting wine (purchases: a bottle of sherry, a bottle of blackberry wine (made from blackberries, not grapes, oh so tasty), and a gift), eating cheese, wandering around Carmel, watching the waves, and having a fine dinner (with free dessert! when they were out of the dish I wanted).

It's weird, pecking away on this laptop. All PC and strange, without any of my files or most of my usual programs, plus a terrible set-up ergonomically. Maybe I should go sprawl on my bed instead. Mmm, IMing and writing in bed. That sounds mighty decedant! I think I'll have to try it...

Travel is SO WEIRD.

I checked into my hotel room for grad school last night (distance learning program in Santa Barbara, go there once a month for 3 days of seminars) and found I had been assigned a roommate, so there was a strange person in the other bed.

*runs in circles*

Routine! Disrupted! Things! Not! Normal!

Gah! A random roommate assignment would make it all that much weirder. At least here I know I can watch TV and randomly AIM people all night and no one will care. ;)
