I’ve (clearly) been pretty out of the blogging loop for the last several months, largely due to being busy getting married, and being wicked busy with work.

This morning, I’m jetlagged in Manila - and at a weird time, having come to Manila via a 24 hour stopover in Geneva, which has really thrown the circadian rhythms out of whack - and since I can’t seem to get my brain to work, I thought I’d throw down a few random thoughts from the last few days…Geneva seems cool - very small town, but with public transportation to beat the band - and it made me really happy to get some good fondue. Didn’t make my digestive tract so thrilled, but it was tasty. Oh, and btw, Switzerland is wicked expensive… and the Swiss Franc is about 1:1 to the US dollar, so you can’t even pretend you don’t notice the prices.

On the flight from Frankfurt to Geneva - an hour or so - they managed to serve a nice, and free, cheese sandwich. Nothing fancy, but the US airlines could learn a thing there. The chunk of Swiss chocolate didn’t hurt, either - even got one of those on the 30 minute flight from Geneva to Zurich.

Hmm. I thought I had more to say, but the brainfog won’t lift… so I guess that’s it for now. Need to fix the offline blog tool so I can capture things in real time. Go read someone else’s blog if you want to be entertained, informed, or titillated. 

(upate: offline tool was apparently working all along, or at least it is now)
