nondescript in blue

Thursday, August 31, 2006
And it's that time of the year again. When I have to haul my reluctant self out of tropical domestic bliss and switch over to the spartan, daily-struggle-for-survival life of a... ah, you know what, re-adapting isn't that big a deal, as long as you think of "daunting" as "challenging" and then transmute that to "exciting". And living abroad has its (many) compensations. Oh yes.

So, flight information -

Departure: 5.05pm from Terminal 2
Flight: SQ 30 (SIA hooray)

I'm quite convinced that at least one (not both, please) of my two bags will go MIA somewhere along the three transits on my itinerary. I have even less faith in US Airways than I have in Northwest (SIA, alas, only takes me as far as LA, where I have to take a connecting flight to Philadelphia). Under the current circumstances, I rather think I have good cause for dread.

The weather seems particularly keen on showering me with more rain and thunder and lightning in two days than I'd ever see in four months at Providence. By all means, bring it on. I am actually regretting not paying as much attention to yesterday's grand thunderstorm as it deserved, considering that it's probably going to be my last proper thunderstorm for months.
