life on the wand

I woke up yesterday morning with a horrid headache, which is never the best way to start your day. Finally gave up on going to work, except that I had to at least go in and get my laptop and some files to take back to Grand Rapids with me. Of course, I was spotted sneaking in and had to deal with a few issues while there, but thankfully I think I looked about as bad as I felt, so no one wanted to hang around me too long. I've found my favorite spot on the AA 777's that fly between London and Chicago. This time of year the planes aren't very full, so I had half of the five-seat row to myself. I managed a good nap and was feeling decent most of the way to Chicago. I read a lot of N. T. Wright's The Challenge of Jesus: Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is, and also watched Mr. 3000 and sort of watched Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. There were some weather problems somewhere, and I ended up stuck in Chicago until pretty late. We got into Grand Rapids about 0130 this morning. The only good thing about the delay was that I managed to finish my book.
