My D-Link router on my 'puter crashed, so I'm restricted to posting from my phone and from work. :(
you better get that fixed.  you have a duty as an administrator coming up soon.

He'd better find out what the problem with the ISP he's been stealing using is. :laugh:

I got back from Australia yesterday. My flights kind of sucked. Everything went pretty smoothly (though it sucks when you're on a 12.5 hour flight and you have a window seat and have to go to the bathroom) until I boarded my flight in San Francisco (which was going to Chicago). We sat in the plane for like 3 hours before takeoff because there were storms in Chicago causing the flight to be delayed. By the time I got to Chicago, I had missed my connecting flight from Chicago to Newark. :( I ended up having to spend the night in the airport, but luckily, security took me to this other room to stay in, and it had a TV. I ended up not sleeping anyway, and I had a 6:30 am flight to New Jersey. It's weird being back, especially since my family moved while I was gone. I'm in a new home now...it's nice, but weird.

Welcome back.  I would have said to my seatmate(s), "Excuse me, I need to get up."

Thanks. I think I said, "Excuse me? Can I just get out?" or something like that, but I felt bad making them get up to let me out. If I ever have a flight that long again, I think I'll get an aisle seat, even though I like the window.

Thanks. I got at least 12 hours of sleep last night. I passed out around 5 or 6 and woke up at 6 am today.

... then you'll be the one getting up at another's whim. Flying sucks!

WELCOME BACK!

Yeah, that sucks too, but being closed in for that long is worse. Flying sucks indeed...I'm sick of it.  :laugh:

I do miss Oz...at the same time, it's nice being back though.
