Atlantis, here I come.
Don't worry; I'm not venturing to a
mythical and lost sunken continent, although that might be kinda
cool. Instead, I'm heading down to Florida for a few days tomorrow
to accomplish three very important things—see my parents, bask in a
little heat, and visit the Kennedy Space Center, where the space
shuttle Atlantis lies in stately repose.
That's the Atlantis to which I'm
referring. So if you're a Facebook friend of mine and your
newsfeed gets overrun with pictures of Atlantis (or pictures of
Atlantis with a dork standing near it) Monday, let me apologize in
advance.
Some people get excited over which way
the toilet paper roll is supposed to hang. I get excited over old
spacecraft.
You won't hear me on the air or read a
new one of these Monday or Tuesday; hope that's okay. When I
mentioned to someone that I'd be gone for a few days they told me
that I'm not allowed to NOT be on the radio for a few days, like the
world would stop spinning on its axis, or something. Hopefully,
they'll survive. When I go to Europe for a week and a half, I make
sure there's all kinds of “best of” stuff on the air, plus I
write a trip blog every day. But for the two days I'll be gone
now?
Sorry. Hope no one goes through
withdrawal, or anything.
Flying back Tuesday I actually have a
semi-long flight from Orlando to Chicago and then a long-ish wait in
Chicago. And since I'm bringing a small computer with me I'll
probably write Wednesday's blog and then post it early, so if you
really want to see pictures of Atlantis (and whatever else looks
interesting) you can check it out then. Otherwise, I'll be back
Wednesday with everything as it normally is, including, I'm guessing,
me whining because it isn't the 80 degrees in Marquette that it's
supposed to be while I'm in Florida.
So have yourself a good weekend, and
stay warm. I know I will!
