So the same day I post about social skydiving, I’m approached by a good friend of mine that wants to take a nice long vacation. A few weeks ago I jokingly told her we should go to Ireland. It doesn’t take long for both of us to agree that we should go somewhere. London was the choice. About 30 minutes ago I bought a round-trip ticket to London for May 5th through the 18th. Half of that should be spent in London proper, and the other half Dublin. Amount of time from the plot being hatched to it being carved in stone: about 22 hours (and it only took that long because I was thoughtful enough to make sure that I could get it off work).

So there it is. I’ll be off to do some real social skydiving in jolly ol’ England in just over three weeks. This time three weeks from now I should have just taken off from O’Hare and should be around Ohio on my flight to Heathrow.
