I have to be quick this morning, since it's 8:35, I leave for the airport in two hours, and I haven't packed...

The trip to Vegas was good. Traffic especially agreed with us; both trips were around 4.5 hours.

Now I have to empty my bag and pack my suitcase all at the same time. And then I have to go take care of getting a check to the place where I park since I won't be around for the first couple days of the new month.

I'll have ample Internet access (and will likely be using my computer for warmth... high of 13 on Friday), so no downtime this time.
