once i leave work, i have to travel an hour to get home. once there i'll down a glass of whiskey, then grab the cat let it slice me to bits as i stuff it in a box. i'll then head back out, and travel for another hour (on a bus) to drop the beast off off with the in laws. i'll turn straight around again, and travel for a third hour to get back home.
by this time it will be well after 9pm. i'll have to pack my suitcase (10 minutes), help my wife pack hers (a few hours?), then try to sleep as much as possible before having to wake up at 4am to head to the airport for a 7am flight.
as cool as holidays are, the actual traveling really sucks.
but on a positive note, last night i downloaded the complete Hitchhiker's Guide radio series and stuck it on my ipod. should keep me entertained for a while
