Right. So I'm in Vienna. I've got not photos to post just yet because it has been a mad dash to get ready for our exhibition. And it's been a bit of a nightmare for some folks so it's been tense and difficult. Not at all as positive as our last expo.
I'm so exhausted I don't even feel excited about my sightseeing days at the end of the week. I'd rather be heading home, really. A week in Denmark before coming here has pretty much done me in on suitcase living, foreign languages, foreign food, foreign outlets and all the attendant crap. I want to curl up in my own bed and not have to set the alarm!
So, you see, traveling for a living is beginning to eat away at me more. I think it's just been so very busy and so very stressful lately. I really just want to relax and have a beer or 9 and not have to think about working... which I have had to now since I left Atlanta Sunday evening -- a week ago. I think that's another reason we're all getting cranky; this is day 7 straight of working under tough conditions with long days.
Now, I'm just finishing up for the day and it's after 8 p.m. and I've been here since 9 a.m. I want dinner but I don't want to have to go out with a big group and spend 21/2 hours doing it.
So, let me finish up and escape!

Words to Live By
I would like to collect great quotes like some people collect sea shells. But I am cursed (or blessed) with a terrible memory. I'm going to use this spot to record some of my favorites, many of them from my incredibly modest mouth.

Hello, sister! Please send me some pastry. Thank you. oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox Seamus
It could be worse: You could be at a desk in a secluded, windowless corner of a newsroom (oops, "information center") at Dutchess County's finest daily newspaper!
I appreciate you :)
I agree with Sean. It could be worse.
You could be here, getting your car stolen.
It could be really worse. You could be like me: waiting for pastries that never arrive. I thought you loved me. oxoxoxoxoxoxox Seamus
