Back in the states

I eventually made it back to the U.S. with the exception of only one missed flight. My flight from London Heathrow to Chicago was about 30 minutes late due to a strong headwind and after we arrived at O'Hare we had to wait in an hour-long U.S. customs line. So, I missed my connecting flight to Omaha and had to wait 3 hours before my re-booked flight took off. It could have been worse so I wasn't really that upset. I eventually made it back to Seward and was pretty happy to be home after traveling for almost 24 straight hours. It was good to see my roommates after a few weeks and even though I had to wait until Sunday afternoon to see my girlfriend, it was the best part about being home.

The trip overall was a great experience and I'm glad that I got to spend some time with my Mom. Since I left for college I really only have gotten to see her 3-4 times a year, so getting to spend a whole week traveling with her was something that I really enjoyed.

I haven't played an poker since I got back, I've been pretty busy with spending time with friends and catching up with my school work. I began to have second thoughts about ever again missing a whole week of class as I was sitting in my Stats class this morning. It felt like my prof was speaking in Japanese and I just struggled to try and piece together some coherent notes. I'll probably get back into the poker swing in a few days but I may not end up playing any till this weekend. I have a lot of catching up to do.

oh yea, I'll throw up some pics from the trip when I get time in the next couple days.
