just woke up after sleeping for 8 or 9 hours, and am listening to william shatner's cover of "common people" on my iPod (finally got that beast working about 45 minutes before we left for our flight). departure was a blur -- last-minute packing and gear acqusition, stocking up on medicine for my cold, disconnecting all my services and subscriptions, and lots of emotional turmoil.
and now we're an hour out from fiji and eating tiny pancakes with syrup.
(i backdated this one since i wrote it in my notebook on the plane. i'll continue to do so for entries written offline, so don't be surprised when you see several posts appear at once from past days.)
