Tired is an understatement, but I still have a couple hours to go before I can decide to call it a night. Looking at my watch, its about 2 pm right now, and I have been up since 7 am on Saturday morning. I got about 2 hours of constantly interrupted sleep on the aircraft (this time the longest stretch was about 45 minutes). Our plan was late an hour due to weather here in the UK and was then an hour later when we were grounded by a thunder and lightning storm that did not allow us to depart for another hour after we had already gotten on the aircraft. So I think our flight finally got off around 8pm when it was supposed to leave at 5:50 and we got in this morning about 8:45. The coach was there to meet us and we got dropped off at Jesus College.
My room this year is in the 2nd quad, and I will take pictures tomorrow when I am more coherent. My room is very different from that of last years: I have a faculty room originally built in the 1600s (the ceiling beams are that old) with an ensuite bathroom, a sitting room, and a bedroom. Hopefully I refridgrator will be delivered tomorrow. For lunch this afternoon I had a BLT, a bag of crisps and a diet coke. Dinner was simple and provided by the hall which consisted of chicken, ravioli, seafood turine, salad and chocolate cake. I did manage to head off to a pub for a pint with a bunch of students and the Locurcio's. Tonight it is a meeting with Heather and then we are going to find some ice cream before calling it a night.
I will let you know tomorrow when I am more fully awake. Its going to be tough to make it to 10.
Ciao for now...
