Flying Home

I'm leaving for the States tonight at 11:30pm and should arrive in Michigan (after 19 hours of flying and a three hour layover in Amsterdam) at 3:40 pm. Oh the magic of time travel. I'll be there for my grandmother's funeral and a hearty dose of family time and then will most likely come back to South Africa in a week or so.

I'm going to leave you for now with one of my favorite songs:

Goodbye, Goodnight


A flower for your vanity, a penny for your thoughts
About the world's insanity and how we've gotten lost
Strike up the band to play a song as we go waltzing by
And fake a smile as we all say goodbye

Say a prayer for recognition, kiss the ones you love
Gather up the ammunition, sigh for all the lost
Strike up the band to play a song as we go waltzing by
And fake a smile as we all say goodbye

Raise a glass for ignorance, drink a toast to fear
The beginning of the end has come that's why we all are here
Strike up the band to play a song and try hard not to cry
And fake a smile as we all say goodbye
Goodbye
-Jars of Clay

Stay cool everyone, I still have to readjust to the fact that I will be reentering summer
