Sorry for the long patch of radio silence. I've spent the last few weeks buried under work- interesting stuff, some of it at least, but there's been just too much of it.
Tomorrow I'm off to Amsterdam for another work thing. I'm really looking forward to seeing the Netherlands again. I never spent too much time in A'dam when I was living in Utrecht in 2000, so in a way it feels like I'm catching up on something I should have done a long time ago. I'm just afraid I might be so busy I won't get a chance to explore the city, and that would be a real shame.
But the big payoff will be next weekend- assuming I survive the week, I'm hopping over to Utrecht to meet Klaartje, Bram and Yvonne. It's going to be so awesome to see the place again with old friends.
I'm off to pack for tomorrow... I wanted to get this post up before I left, because, as Deborah rightly pointed out, the last post was pretty dire. Ha ha, she said it reminded her of the Faure Requiem...
Dies illa dies irae
calamitatis et miseriae
dies illa, dies magna
et amara valde
That's pretty much how I was feeling when I wrote it too! I feel much better now, probably because I actually got a full night's sleep last night. It's amazing, I almost feel drunk with awareness.
More soon. I'll post from Amsterdam if I can.
