Pending craziness

For most of May, it seemed like all of my colleagues at work were traveling while I stayed back in the office. Starting next week, the tides will turn as I leave home for basically three weeks of travel: a week in Hong Kong, a week in Tokyo, home for the weekend, Frankfurt for a few days, home for one night, Brussels for a couple of days (three days at home in three weeks!). Then, hopefully, sleep for an entire weekend. I have especially mixed feelings about my trip to Asia. It's a Very Good Thing that I'll get to eat lots of yummy Asian food and squeeze in a little bit of sightseeing between meetings, but it's a Not-So-Very-Good Thing that Gretchen can't accompany me. As for Frankfurt and Brussels...feh.
