I'm sitting around unemployed these days, which is not something I'm used to. (I'm really rather enjoying it, though I'm probably not supposed to admit that.) One convenient side-effect of putting almost all my tuition on credit cards over the last two years is that I have a healthy stock of reward points built up, enough to get me a round-trip flight anywhere in the country. So I'm going to fly out to visit
adularia and finally get to see New York. Which raises the question: is there anyone else I should visit while I'm at it? The dates aren't set yet, and so far seem to completely lack constraints. I'm primarily asking about the east coast, within train distance of NYC. But I'm open to the idea of other trips, particularly those drivable from Seattle, should you want a piscine visit. Let me know!
