Including pulling an actual all-nighter last night in rome, working straight through until it was time to leave for the airport, where I proceeded to sit down in my seat and pass out, only waking up for the food service and wondering how I could sleep through the plane <em>actually taking off<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the crazy part though. We&#8217;re finally going to London.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone in my group came home for the day, and the whole week we were all&#8230;&quot;no, no really, we <em>want<\/em> to go home&quot;.  Basically we were all so crazy that we felt we needed the mental health break of a day at home.  And then on the plane, we were all like, &quot;what the fuck were we thinking?&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>At least I don&#8217;t have to go back to Rome.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a beautiful city, and I <em>highly<\/em> recommend spending a week or two there on vacation.  Or elsewhere in Italy.  but six weeks of poorly air-conditioned conference rooms in an office park halfway to the airport is not visiting rome.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t have to leave until fairly late in the day tomorrow (one of the benefits of London?  It&#8217;s several hours closer, so the redeye leaves much later in the day).  And, I just realized that daylight savings time ends tomorrow, which means that I get an extra hour to my day.  And when you&#8217;re counting the time at home in terms of hours instead of days, that extra hour is a really great thing.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, my apologies for not updating more regularly, but I&#8217;m obviously distracted.  My doorman asked me today why I bought an apartment if I was never going to live there&#8230;I told him that wasn&#8217;t exactly the plan when I moved in&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m home again&#8230; Returned to Rome on the redeye monday night, and worked pretty much constantly until this morning.
