Hadn't realised it was so very long since I'd posted. Here, that is. I've actually been writing so the other journal's been fairly busy. Go me!
Last week I had a trip to St. Andrews on the Sea, New Brunswick, for work. I flew out Friday night before Hurricane Kyle roared through, so I had excellent beautiful weather the entire three days. One day of travel, one of meetings, and one of boat trip (whale watching woo hoo!) and puttering around Saint John in the car that only I was insightful enough to rent. It was gorgeous. The thing that surprised me most about the New Brunswick coast was how very very much it is like the Great Lakes northern coastlines. Other than the tides, virtually indistinguishable. I totally felt like I was at home.
While there, I developed a lovely little condition called BPPV - Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo, which is an incredibly wordy way of saying "Don't move. Spinning will eat you." Essentially, little crystals form in the fluid of the inner ear, and then bang around against ear walls and each other as your position changes. It is unbelievably annoying, with the world spinning and the nausea and loss of balance, and did I mention that it causes your eyeballs to twitch back and forth and affects vision? So unpleasant, but utterly safe. Made the plane ride an adventure (I am SURE planes don't actually go into flat spins spontaneously - or at least that other people would *notice* if it did), but surprisingly little trouble driving. Spent Sunday in the hospital ensuring that it was nothing serious, but all is well. And, now, it's gone away --- woo hoo!
That's my net news. Cheers All.
