h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm too weary to rest. (Catatonia)
I'm not really, I just like the sound of it. The last time I said it with feeling, and meant it, was the night before I left the UK to return to Canada, after a seven-and-a-half year stay. All the things that need to be done finally having to be declared either done or just not going to be done, as we sat and drank to the occasion up at the Bowl.
Now, here I am packing up for a return visit, over two years later. Not nearly so weary. Not nearly so torn with those feelings of both returning home and leaving home, at the same time. Still, there is a small sense of going home for a visit when I think of the friends I'll meet up with while I'm there. So, here's to the occasion.
