The Great Escape

I should be packing, not blogging. Similarly, over the next week and change I should be vacationing, not blogging. And yet, here we are. Heading overseas tonight and will be checking in over the next week or so – less so than normal but moreso than any rational person who would claim to be on holiday should. But I’m at peace with that.

Anyways, for now there’s a few bits and pieces to clear out before checking out.
