Gee, Ma, I wanta go . . .

but they won't let me go . . . home.

So it's Friday afternoon, and I'm sitting in the Crown Room at LAX. That would be in Los Angeles (if you haven't been memorizing your airport nicknames). You'll remember that I live in Georgia. This is a sad thing.

This is the end of week two of a four-week string of UGLY travel.
  • last week, Chicago, Philly and Rochester
  • this week, Indianapolis, Sacramento and LA
  • next week, Chicago and Dallas
  • the following week: LA, New York City, and Chicago

That may sound cool and glamorous to those of you who rarely leave the city limits, but trust me when I tell you that it gets old really fast. The good news is that I'm racking up the frequent flier miles and free hotel nights. Blockus is REALLY ready for a family trip.

I just want to go home. And stay there for a while.

note to Tim: I didn't have time to try to get together while I was in Sacramento this week. I was only there for an afternoon and was with my boss most of that time. Hopefully I can get back soon and finally meet you!

So we notice you haven't posted any updates in the last two weeks, and we're wondering whether you're still stuck in the Crown Room at LAX....

Well, the next time you're up in the area, maybe you can drop by for a while. The invitation is still open.
