I've been meaning to post this for a while, but keep forgetting:<\/p>\n
This is a heavy travel period for me.<\/p>\n
This past weekend, I flew up to Tacoma and Seattle for my grandmother's posthumous 100th-birthday party, and to see family and friends. More on that soon, maybe.<\/p>\n
Next weekend, I'll be flying down to LA. The proximate cause is a company trip to a certain major entertainment facility down thataway, but I've been meaning to head down there for years to see Jay & Holly and Gabrielle and her family. So I'm heading down on Saturday and coming back the following Friday. Unfortunately, that's still not enough time to see all my Greater-LA-Area friends, so I'm going to focus mostly on family (plus a couple of friends I haven't seen in quite a long time). I'm hoping to make it down there more often for occasional weekends this year, but I've been saying that every year for a while now. We'll see. Anyway, anyone who I don't manage to see this trip, I'll try and make a point of visiting next time.<\/p>\n
I was going to stay for two weekends and the week between, to maximize time for seeing people, but then I realized that if I did that, I would be away from home on five consecutive weekends (see below), and I think that's not a recipe for a happy Jed.<\/p>\n
So I'll be home for a weekend. Then the weekend of Feb. 15th, I'll be out in Chicago for a tenth-anniversary\/Valentine's weekend with Mary Anne. And the following weekend--assuming we get plane tickets soon--Kam and I will be heading down to Mazatlán.<\/p>\n
Lots of running around, lots of travel, lots of socializing. I'm hoping that I'm pacing myself well enough to avoid completely falling apart, but we'll see.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
