The Six-Month Itch

Well hello, Sportsfans. I'm just getting amped up to hit Dartford's finest pub (sad audible sigh heard almost transcontinentally), and thought I'd give a little peek at flights home. You heard it here first, folks, I'm comin' home! In five months! Well, for a bit anyway.

I've been here for exactly six months, ladies and gents. And now it's time to plan my vacay back home. I'll be there right after school ends, since the Men in Suits are only giving us four weeks of vacation (I'm so hard done by, right nine-to-fivers?). I'm thinking of leaving on Saturday the 23 (the day after school ends), but am thinking that might be a bit of a time crunch. Plus, the flight is £40 cheaper if I leave Monday. Thoughts?

I'm back to fine old Dartford on the 21st of August though. Sorry all...can't stay as long as I thought I'd be able to. BUT to make up for time cuddling the Munchkins, golfing with Mummy, cooking with my grandparents, elaborately story telling with Dad, and wine-drinking with the Girls, I'm forgoing my post-school year vacation. I'll save it for the two weeks we get off around Thanksgiving. Nice-uh.

Had a lovely chat today with a charming human being. I love a good telephone conversation. And THEN I got to talk with Jamie (also a very charming human being) for an hour and a half. Southwestern Ontario got hit AGAIN with an enormous amount of snow, so though she braved the roads, none of her kids did. Nice.

That's all for now. I hope you're having a great day!
