Ok... so I just realised that a week today I will be in a cheap hotel somewhere in Orlando sleeping off nearly 24 hours of travel - waiting for my shuttle in the morning.

I'm flying out tomorrow! 6am flight... Thought I'd prepare myself by getting up stupidly early this morning. It's going to be a long day at work.

I'm flying tomorrow at 7:55am - getting the 1:30am bus from Cardiff, so no sleep 'til Florida! well.. i'll probably try on the plane, but basically, the next time I put my head down in my sleeping bag, it'll be on a Gainesville floor :D

Tell me about it dude. I get paid while i'm over there aswell so I've got another week of the pound potentially dropping even more value!

Horrible.

Woah, I didn't realise it was that bad, that's ridiculously awful. :(

And nerves.

Honestly if someone wants to just knock me out before we take off and wake me up when we land i'd be eternally grateful.

On a lighter note. What movies do you reckon we'll get on the plane?
Not sure if it's too soon but I'd be well happy with Tropic Thunder and Burn After Reading.

three words for you --- herbal muscle relaxers. If nothing, I'll give you some for the way back.

Doubtful it would be Tropic Thunder -- there's a plane wreck or helicopter crash in it. I think they shy away from stuff like that.

There goes my hopes of catching up on some Lost then.
