Cold here. And a hellish journey from Göteborg airport.
All was reasonably fine. O’Hare to Heathrow to Landvetter. But the last leg was hellish. I was frustrated at the US public transport system in Santa Rosa, but will never say a bad word about it again. It turns out: getting from Göteborg and home was not trivial – that is what you get for living in the sticks, regardless of it being on the way to the capital. F**K the eejits!
Having a headcold did not help, and I could feel my patience with people dwindle as we snailed north. It got colder and colder. By the time we arranged a pick-up for the last bit, I was frozen through and through and had no legs anymore. None I could feel anyway.
After having picked up my car, done some dizzy-headed shopping and dangerous driving, I landed home. It took fucking seven hours to get from Göteborg and home. Pissed off at most things and people; not really wanting to be here.
Mercury retrograde indeed.
