vacation+olympics=confusion

After three weeks of vacation, I've been staying up late trying to watch Olympic coverage. A major fail was when Michael Phelps was going for the 100M fly and our power went out. Do you know how long it takes a DirecTV box to reset? A really long time. And then that night, I wanted to stay up and catch the Mark Spitz interview. Guess what? I fell asleep.

I woke up on the couch and was confused by the TV. There was news on and it was Bay Area anchors and I was sure, in my sleep-addled state, that I was still in Ohio. It took me quite a few moments to figure out that I was in my own house, on my own couch in California and not in my mom's house in Ohio.

Hi. I'm back from vacation.
