On fire!

31 hours to go! Before I am in Thailand with "Man". For 8 days. Haven't seen him since Jan. 2...YAY!!!

Waaaay busy at work. The big push is on to re-locate our offices, which is a big deal for anybody, but in Hong Kong will cost my little non-profit organization about US$9,000 per month plus 3 months deposit and huge fitting out costs. I've been dealing with a million details night and day for the past 2 weeks. My staff of 12 are eager to help, but things aren't yet ready enough yet for them to be able to.

While I am there, I plan on getting lots of R&R, and lots of love and cuddles for my 50th birthday on Monday as well as Valentine's Day (Yay again)!!!!

Maybe I'll also do some writing...my chapter of Robin awaits, in the idea planning stage...then there's Green-Eyed Monster, HOFDL and LL each needing work right now, and ideas are bubbling...Ye Gods. I seem much better at starting stories than I am at continuing them or finishing them. Huge apologies for being amongst the slowest writers on Earth...hehe

To something completely different! Have you heard that India wants to buy an aircraft carrier, used from Russia?? Just what that region needs. And Thailand has a practically new one, which they can't afford to use. It costs US$200,000 just to fire it up and move away from its mooring. *Giggles*

Oh, and I salute the British Queen! (No, not you, Tim!) 50 years! She was coronated the year I was born. Good planning on somebody's part. Odd tho, really. In the US I'm a Democrat if anything, and in the UK I'd be a republican (with a white cockade as well, awaiting the return of Bonnie Price C. from over the sea...)
