last leg of a long journey

Today, SK picked up her ex-girlfriend in an airport in Australia. They (with other friends) will spend a couple days in a hotel then begin a several day road trip from some town to some other town for a big conference they're all attending. So, for the next several days, SK will be cozied up with the ex and out of e-mail range. Hmm.

Meanwhile, I sit home, listen to c.d.s, ignore my schoolwork, drink cheap beer alone, plot and scheme, etc. Blog and check my site meter and smoke cigarettes and wonder what the world is like outside my little cacoon.

There's a world out there, right?
