Back to bedlam

Like I said, things pretty much worked out about as perfectly as they could with the visa. More or less. And after exactly three months, I was back on the Trident. I wish I felt less instantly at home :). Dunno why.I imagine it might have something to with the completely mistaken notion of distance the long vacation had created. I suppose it could be worse :).Crew change went quite peacefully, except for the several delayed flights. I was somewhat disappointed with (500) Days of Summer. Which would be a first for a Zooey Deschanel movie! Just goes to show that you can't take the soundtrack to be entirely representative of a movie :).
Of the 5 other new movies I managed to watch on the flights, only My Sister's Keeper and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs would be worth a mention. The former being thought provoking and the latter being refreshing.
It's a cold winter here as with so many other places this time. And winter in these parts, it would seem, brings with it squalls and cold fronts and the like. So it's been a somewhat interesting couple of days, with several people looking slightly unsure of their ability to keep that last meal down, and stretches of somewhat frantic battles against the forces of nature.Now if only the other 33 days would get over as peacefully :).

Currently: back...
Listening to: Moriarty - Private Lily
