in which I go traveling again
Due to poor planning on my part but also RyanAir’s various restrictions on their cheaper deals, I’ve ended up cramming all my remaining travel into about a week. I’m spending the weekend in Marseille, France, and getting back Monday evening; then I’m spending about half of Tuesday going to Birmingham for a Coldplay concert. And then Thursday morning I go to Katowice, Poland (main attraction for my purposes: proximity to Auschwitz), and get back Saturday evening, and…then a friend and I are doing this day-trip thing to Bruges, Belgium. Which leaves at 4 a.m. from the middle of town. And the week after that I have three papers and a presentation.
Yeah, this…this will be interesting. Especially because my coach to the Stansted airport leaves at 4:30 a.m. tomorrow, and I’ll be getting almost no sleep because, guess what, I have a gig tonight. Which I booked ages ago, but still, and I would skip it except I really like what I’ve heard. I’m also not packed and should be leaving for said gig, like, now.
