Well, here I go work-travelling again. It's a good thing that I don't want a job that involves a lot of travel! This is my fourth trip since february for work. And leaving here is not easy, it's a good hour and a half to where I'm going , then a 45 minute bus ride. Fortunately, I've got my i-pod and book to keep me going. Oh, and the title of my post is in reference to the little planes we get to travel in around here. The one I'm on today is not bad, but it ain't no jet plane.
I may not be very active this week due to this, but I hope to keep up with everyone's posts/news. I also really hope that this doesn't send me into a flare like the last trip (which I am now just recovering from). Oh well. At least I'll be somewhere new, eating good food and doing a bit of shopping. The biggest light at the end of this tunnel is that this coming weekend is a long one and my sweetie and I are hiking up to the cabin. No phones, no t.v., no electricity. Just us and our doggie :) It'll be good recuperation time.

Travel Bug
So, I've barely gotten home from a quick trip to the Island when I am off again in two days. This is making me most happy, for a variety of reasons:
1. I get to see some really wonderful folks (one of which I have been friends with for about 18 years!) who happen to have a really wonderful baby. Who likes to wipe her grubby hands on me :) She also likes to get up at about 5 in the morning, but I am not holding that against her :) She's way too cute for that.
2. Kill some major time while the Dom is away on his nearly month long school/olympic adventure. I'm so proud of him, and happy he got to check out a hockey game, but jeez! This is a loooonnnngggg trip.
3. Food. In the form of lovely vegetarian Pad Thai, homecooked chicken heaven, and soon to be sushi in ma tummy. And, I usually get an awesome breakfast made while I'm there, cause Dave is great like that.
4. Really awesome decaf, dark roast, fair-trade, organic coffee. It's the best decaf I've had. It's so good we're questioning just how "decaf" it is.
5. Wedding magazine browsing. Jen is getting married this summer, and it is indeed fun to laugh at those ridiculous dresses! I know I want to try one on at some point in my life, but I can't imagine actually wearing some of those creations. I guess I just like to be comfortable. Strange.
Anyway, I'm pumped about this trip. I'm leaving a bit earlier than my meetings, just to get some good visiting/eating/shopping for various food items unavailable in Labrador.
