home again, etc.

I am surely the only person who has ever been glad her luggage didn't manage to make the connecting flight home, because it meant she had less to carry at the end of a long day.

I have just sent a (rather brave, I thought, but hopefully not reckless) e-mail to the job people, saying, essentially, "So nu?"  (Of course I didn't use those words.  What I said was, "Do you know if there's an ETA for a decision on the position I saw you about on December 6."  And blah blah off for the whole week of Christmas and then New Year's plus President Ford, but they'd said I'd hear by December 22, which for them is more or less yesterday but which for me is sort of a long time ago, and it's just that if I need to keep looking, the sooner I begin the better.)  (I was very deferential about all of it!)

Now, I shall go buy stamps, and retrieve my suitcase at the airport, and head up to the curling club for More Officiating.  (Fear me!)

You are not the only one!

But... you had to go get your bag? Mine has always been conveniently couriered to camp for me, saving me from lugging it through the NY subway and upstate on the train. I *love* having my bag couriered.

They'd have delivered it to me, but I needed stuff that was in it and I couldn't wait. So since I was going out anyway, I stopped by the airport (which is very close) and picked it up. And I didn't even have to pay for parking!
