This time next high tide’ I be boardin’ a plane t’ th’ good old USA. `Tis been a great six moons o’er here in th’ UK, but I be lookin’ fore t’ goin’ homeport. I’ve made a top-ten list o’ things t’ do when I get homeport. Half o’ th’ list be food/drink related…

Los Angeles and Dallas

I finally got to go home mid-June to see friends and take care of errands/appointments. I really didn’t have a chance to sit back and fully relax, especially since I worked most of the time, but I did have a little fun.
I started it off with a great trip to LA. The US […]

London

I went to London back in late May (can you say delayed blog?) for the USA vs England game and a bit of touring around. The game was pretty bad ’cause the US players didn’t seem to be trying, nor did they apear to care. But any time you get to go see […]

Manchester and Preston

Last weekend I went off to Manchester to see the Man City vs Fulham game. Fulham came back from 2-0 to win it 3-2. I never liked Sun Jihai, but now I hate him. That was just horrible. But that’s not for here…

Scotland

Sorry if this post is kind of choppy. I’m trying to get over strep throat, but I just really needed to get this up on the blog. So here’s the Scotland update…
Two weeks ago, I went to Edinburgh to work for a couple of days. I took that Friday off so I […]

Fulham @ Derby County

I got to attend my first English Premier League game on Saturday. Derby is only a 25 minute train ride from Nottingham, so I figured I’d check it out. Sure, the ticket wasn’t cheap and it Derby are the worst team in the league, but still…it’s a Premiership game! The best part is they were […]

6,517 Miles

…that’s how many frequent-flyer miles I got flying business class to the UK.
Harlan picked me up on Thursday morning and took me to the airport. Thanks Harlan! Checking in, I found out that both of my checked bags were overweight. They charge $50 per bag that is overweight, which I think is ridiculous. […]

Yes, I’m alive

I’m also a big fat liar.
Trust me when I say it’s not on purpose. I hadn’t been feeling very well over the weekend, and I was just too busy today. Now I’m feeling extremely narcosleepy, so I’m going to hit the sack. I promise…I WILL post an update to bring you all […]

Headed to the UK

I’ll be leaving for the UK soon. By the time I get there, my blog should look very different and the existing posts will be archived. Stay tuned - I’ll be keeping this up to date with pictures and stories of my travels.

Last-minute Travel

It looks like I’m going to travel for work after all. The bank decided they did want a few of us on site next week, and they decided today. They want us there first thing Monday morning, which means flying on Sunday. Since they sprung it on us last minute and my […]
