Further Proof that the World is Tiny

Before I delve into exactly why this, except for perhaps three or four people. And now anyone reading this blog. So…three or four people know about my Morocco plans.

The idea was prompted by my friend and travel addict Alma who, after several attempts to get me to travel somewhere cool and exotic with her, got me to commit to an extended weekend in Marrakech. The more we talked, the more we planned, and the more I actually grew to accept that I could (and should) pull this off. I don’t have my ticket yet, but I’m planning to buy it by the end of next month. (I’m going to sell my kidneys for travel money, but I understand they do grow back rather quickly. Cha-ching!)

Writing about Travel, Winning Books on Blogs

Alrighty…Since I somewhat committed myself to getting back into travel writing, I suppose there are worse ways to get back into the swing of things and getting my name out there than by winning a book from the Perceptive Travel blog.

I think this makes my 3^rd travel book won via a random online contest. (And my 17^th return to travel writing.)At this rate, I may not ever be famous, but at least I’ll have an impressive library.

In any case, I’m back!

(Thanks to Sheepstone for the kick in the ass.)

Back in travel mode...

Hi Fellow Travelers,

Just a quick note to say howdy. I've been off doing some non-travel-related tasks, but I'm back in the travel mindset and, more to the point, back in the writing mindset. I'll be posting regularly again shortly, but I wanted to post a quick hello to get the writing/posting/blogging muscles back in action.

Whew! I need a nap. And a cigarette. Wait, I don't smoke. I'll take two naps then.

OK, more in a wee bit. Hope all is well on the travel front. But then again, we shall soon find out, eh?
