Headed up to the Isle of Skye for the next week. Internets likely to be dodgy...

Ugh. Apparently I *still* haven't fully adjusted to the time difference. 11am and I'm just out of bed.
British daytime TV is just as wretched as what we have at home.
Unexpectedly awesome: an entire room of Rothkos at the Tate Modern
Tate Modern, Millenium Footbridge, etc. today, a play with Ralph Fiennes tonight. Hoping rain holds off for at least another day.
Headed to the British Museum today, and a play (the name of which escapes me) tonight.
Today I learned that no one actually follows the "Dogs must be kept on leads" instructions in Hyde Park. Also, very tasty madras for dinner
Long red-eye flight, but now safely ensconced in a very pleasant small hotel in South Kensington, and only somewhat jet-lagged.
Brunch at in-laws, then JFK, then Heathrow. Long day ahead...
8 months of planning coming down to the wire this weekend. Getting married is even more complicated than deploying Tomcat apps.

It's always surprising to me that people are still using LimeWire, Kazaa, etc. http://snipurl.com/27v6p
Ah, the wonders of Fox News http://snipurl.com/27qh0
Hulu.com, not completely useless. They have the "Turkeys Away" episode of WKRP http://snipurl.com/27k3h
New blog post: Inevitable! http://www.downdb.net/?p=787
OpenDNS is having some weird problem resolving google.com http://snipurl.com/27hh5
If CNN's numbers are to be believed, Obama has closed the gap in Indiana quite a bit in the last half hour.
