Whee! I made it home! Flying from the U.K. to the middle of the Pacific is a 24 hour flight time alone. But since we got stuck in Newark between the earthquake and the hurricane, it took us 24 hours longer than expected. If I'd the money, I would have flown to Japan and then on home.
Have been recovering from this. I always get very ill when I travel long distances. It's not the long flights, it is the several hops in succession that does me in. And I am just plumb stupid for weeks after a trip that long. Consequently, I haven't been home since 2008.
My computer made it, but now have to unpack all my boxes. Somehow I have to make room in the house for more...stuff...
(hey!! manga isn't just *any* stuff! It's my precious reading material, bwahaha...)
And i have to catch up on things. Will get around to everyone eventually. (sorry!)
It's so nice to get fresh papayas and pineapples! yea!

Hope you are fully recovered and wherever you are enjoy your fresh papayas (I don't really like pineapple but you can enjoy'em too) XD

I read your journal whilst you were travelling - so interesting! (but I can't use a standard keyboard, so I couldn't comment on anything!)
Hope you've been enjoing your reading!

I spent the last few days finishing the fan fic I started in July so I couldn't follow my LJ in a proper way.
By the way I enjoyed my reading and the trip too but from tomorrow it will start all the madness: school and dance lessons for my 5 years old cuty and school piano lessons and soccer training for my 7 years old kid.
I guess I'll try to have few minutes to check on my journal at work during the break ... hopefully
