krislaughsMade it!
It was a close thing, too. After the first TWELVE HOURS of my trip, I had made it though two flight delays, two missed connections, and exactly two (driving) hours away from where I had started.
US Airways was singularly unhelpful.
My cat went roughly 24 hours stuck in his 15-inch carrier (he's about 15 inches himself) with no litterbox access because every. single. person. at the airport seemed shocked and amazed to learn that you couldn't let a cat out to relieve himself in the airport mandated rock lawn-for-dogs.
I think he survived the experience intact, but am just waiting for him to get a UTI. (After which I will send a bill for my services in treating it to the airline thankyouverymuch.)

From the moment I got off the plane, I remembered what humidity was. Not gonna lie, I rather miss not having to don a winter coat for a rainstorm.
The house is nice, but not exactly decorated to my personal asthetic. I'm not sure how much I can change (like removing the pink-flower-and-lace curtains) without insulting the landlords. I suspect much of it will be stored, if for no other reason, than so that my cats cannot scratch it.

Clearly, because I arrived today around noon rather than last night around midnight (as originally ticketed) I did not start work today as planned. I kind of don't know what to do with myself. I can only do so much unpacking before my furniture arrives...
No TV yet. But obviously the internet is working!
Maybe I'll just have a glad of wine and take the night off. Now there's an idea!
