c9 | Decline of the Travel Empire (Reply)

leapfish and I have lately been feeling like we're not getting out much. We do live in Kitchener, so getting out is almost a mental health requirement, but at the same time getting out is a mental health danger too. Last night we went out for (a bad) dinner and bowling with a bunch of friends, so that was fun.

What we've really been a little down about is our lack of proper travel. As some of you have observed, we are addicted to airplanes. Not as bad as

ironmanjt, but still. Our travel excess over the past couple years, combined with tuition and renovation, have led us to sit a bit still. Or at least, for us.

I'm a little insulated from the lack of travel due to work. My schedule featured trips to Halifax (x3), Winnipeg, and Vancouver since June. So really, I have no excuse at all.

Our next few months:

YVR (Vancouver), 15-17 Nov, just Cam
Doh! Added: YFC (Fredericton), 24-28 Nov, just Vinny
SEA (Seattle), 29 Dec-1 Jan
LAS (Las Vegas), 19-24 Feb, petele and cap_hill_latte probably joining us -- anybody else wanna come?

You probably don't see the problem, but we both look at that and see almost no travel. It's silly.

Maybe it's time to plan a party in PEI for next summer some time. You're all invited, anybody interested?
