Tooting from a plane over the Midwest. Technology!

Did the sad thing and now I'm at my gate at LAX waiting to fly back to the east coast. It was a good trip! Abe is an extremely good spiny back.

Back in the USA - staying the night in LA and then flying out tomorrow for home. (Via JFK because I was too slow on the draw to book direct)

Today is rainy so we went to the mall and Abe bought Zelda. I'm trying not to back seat link too much, haha. We head out tomorrow and then I fly home from LA on Saturday. I get back home Saturday night.

Today we had Abe's (belated) family Xmas and he got a Nintendo switch, which is super dope because I'd been talking him into one since we got ours. He got me Mario vs rabbids kingdom battle which he is now playing since it's the only switch game we have, haha. It helps that it's just cute xcom.

Pretty good representation of the trip so far (muriwai beach)

I finished the first Southern Reach book on the flight to LAX; I'm reading the second one now. The first was very roadside picnic meets SCP, but I like both of those things generally so I was happy with it. At this rate I'll have to pick up the third in NZ if I can find it.

@angrboda Abe is still flying and has been for pretty much the entire day. LHR to LAX is like a 12 hour flight. Our flight tomorrow (LAX to AKL) is 12 hours, too. It takes him an entire day's worth of hours to fly home. If he wasn't flying with me he would probably go the other direction, but it's just as long.

My flight has wifi and now it seems much less onerous and lonely because I get to talk to Therian

Checked my bag and past security - getting ready to board in a bit. Excited for LA, and Abe, and then on to NZ tomorrow!

Yesterday I burned a racist so bad on Twitter she deleted her account. I feel like I banished her, haha.

I had to go back out to my car for something late in the evening and the stars were really clear and bright. I spent a few minutes standing outside with my legs in capris and crammed into tall winter boots looking at the constellations. Then I remembered that it was cold and I wasn't wearing a jacket.

Got the majority of my packing done, laundry is done, and I did my journal. Not a bad night! I feel pretty good about my level of readiness for leaving Friday 💪🏻

Okay so Abe's sister's packages are 2/3 of my duffel bag, whugh. Other than that I feel like I'm using the 'right' amount of space and I'm on track to get everything I need squeezed in.

Heck yeah I found my outlet converter for Australasia which means I don't have to buy a new one 😸

Tf stuff 

@tfproxy yeah I'm pretty much the same on that score but I was curious what other peoples' takes were
