Going up to Alaaaaaaaska
Going up to the land of the midnight sun
Going up to Alaaaaaaaaaaaska!
So…one quick hop flight from Victoria to Seattle, one night at a (very confusing) hotel, and…here I be!
Getting on that plane was hard this time. Amras and I have only been married just over a month, and leaving was not something I particularly wanted to do. Much as I’m glad to be back at work – in the sense that I’m doing something with myself, I’m making money, and I do still – most of the time – enjoy what I do, especially since I’m finally back on the flagship…my heart is very lonely. I simply don’t like being out here without him.
But, it’s only three months. I have a nice room (and the books I left here three years ago were still in the closet!!), I’m on my favourite ship, and there are – because this is the flagship – a lot of people I know here.
And since this is the Alaska run, the people are – again for the most part – very nice. And for the few that aren’t (though I haven’t run into them yet) there’s a lovely little reset button at the end of two weeks. They always go home!
Lots of catch-up work to do though, as the systems need to be reimaged and the new computers installed, so I’m sure that will take up a fair bit of my time.
And when I’m not doing that, I still have Tangled to work on, and I’m trying very hard to level my character up in the other game I play (hey, everyone’s got their hobbies!).
So, let’s see what Alaska has in store for me this season shall we?
