Home again home again

The last day of the con brought the usual closing down and hugs and goodbyes. neadods and I wound up on the same flight to Detroit so we spent a lot of time together waiting at the airport. She let me borrow her Wurlitzer to listen to the first half of Big Finish audio "Storm Warning". Being a zeppelin/airship geek, I was amused by the way they used a historical event for their purposes. The R-101 did crash and did take a British Air Minister with it. There will probably be some burblings over the background and accuracy of said usage, possibly with pictures. I spotted a couple of things that weren't quite right. I understand why they did it, but it's still annoying.

At the Detroit airport, we went our seperate ways since she was headed to BWI and me to Reagan. The flight was uneventful, but it took forever to get our bags. I think they must have had only one working conveyer belt.

And now I'm home. The apartment doesn't seem to have fared too badly while I was gone, comparatively speaking. (When your hotel is over 60% humidity, anything is seen as a vast improvement, even it isn't really.) I'll probably set the dehumidifier to its paces anyway.

David Tennant's "Secret Smile" is playing on BBC America right now. They'll repeat it later in evening and the second part follows the next night. He was even skating. I'm now picturing him and Barrowman skating around together. Bad girl, you've come under dark influences...
