So CopperCon was a blast (as was the heat in Tempe: like a blast furnace...). Met many cool people, and had a super time. Had time to touch base with our fellow GoH, the excellent (and very busy!) Marc Scott Zicree. Ate the terrible Jack In The Box tacos for breakfast twice. (Don't ask what bizarre turn of personal history has left me fixated on this worst of all possible junk foods.) ...And now we're on our way home.

One happy accident put right something which had been a minor annoyance to both of us: due to some ticket changes, Peter and I had wound up on separate flights on the first homeward leg, PHX-EWR. But when Peter rolled up to his flight at the ungodly hour of 0545, he found that it had been oversold, and compensation and first-class seats on my flight were being offered to those who would voluntarily change to it. So we fly to Newark together after all. Even if he does wind up marooned in first class (poor baby!) and I have to sit back in coach.

No biggie. I'm happy but tired, and can't wait to get back home to the cats.

Jack in the Box tacos. I remember those. They deep-fry the whole thing, meat, lettuce, tortilla and all.

It was excellent meeting you guys! And I second the bravery on Jack in the Box tacoes. I've never had the nerve to try them.

So what time Ireland time is 5:45 a.m. Tempe time, anyway? Seems like it should be pleasantly mid-afternoon, right?

Jack-In-The-Box? *shudders* But ain’t serendipity marvelous, allowing you to fly together? I’m glad you had a good time at the con, and I’m sure your cats are even more impatient than you are. (ours always are ;-)

Those tacos are truly nasty... and completely addictive. There's something about that spicy crunch that keeps you coming back. I'm just glad there's not one near where I live!!
