"Hi everybody!"

"Hi Dr. Nick!"

Strange... UK computer keyboards have the punctuation in different places... I also had a brief moment of panic driving home from the airport, thinking the car passing me was on the wrong side of the road.

But other than that, England is lovely. :) At least the little bit I have seen so far. I'm now in Maidenhead (how's that for a name!) and everything looks so... British. Ha ha. Seriously. It is lovely, just lovely.

The house I am living in is cute as a button. Gitte (the mom) and her husband, Clive, are both really nice. The kids seem cool. Sophie (13) is really smart and likes to sew, so that is cool. Mark is adorable, he explained British TV to me today. (Cable is called "Sky.") Well, the kids are off at school and the parents at work now, so I'm alone for the day, which is nice. Just waiting for the shopping to be delivered... how quaint.

I hope I don't have to fly again for a long time, I quite nearly got sick on the plane. :P

I have not yet seen Teh Alan, although I did think for two seconds that Colin Firth was next to me at the airport, but alas, 'twas only a lookalike. ;)

Well, hi everyone! Brooke, tell everyone back in Chucktown that I'm here, and I'm okay, and I miss you guys!!!

Would say more, but I'm still tired. So I'm off to watch more British TV. :) BBC rocks!

Are, yep. In North Augusta, actually, although I have friends in dear ol' Chucktown. :D

Now how come I never knew that??? I grew up in Greenville, in Travelers Rest, which really IS Bumfuck, USA. Ha ha. I can't say I'm sorry to see any of SC go!

Haha, it's probably an easy fact to overlook, since I don't usually make it a well-known fact. Our "great" state isn't particularly great, if you ask me... although the Greenville area is a right sight prettier than the Savannah river area. YAY brown brushy flatlands! *headdesk*

When are you posting piccies of your new area?

As soon as I can get a digital camera... soon I hope!

Wait, did I know you grew up in Greenville? I've driven through Traveler's Rest many a time. The name always cracks me up.

I think we talked about that once, in a galaxy far far away. TR sucks, that's for sure.
