I remember as a kid not thinking too much about it when I truly learned that there was no Santa Claus. I think I kinda already knew.

But when I learned that Shamu wasn't a single killer whale, it was just what they named the whale performing for a given show? That was true disappointment.

I just find this statue of a cow in a space suit, claiming a patch of moon for Texas, amusing. It's in the lobby of the A terminal here at Houston International airport. A few more hours here then I'm back in Atlanta for a few days. Fortunately thre next trip is vacation, just book ended by trade shows (Chicago's next!).
Houston's been good, albeit little more than airport to hotel to convention center and back. I'm glad to be on my way home, even knowing there's little rest for me until next week. Tis my life, busier than I like, yet with little I wish to forgo...a far better dilemma than that faced by so many others. I'm thankful for my lot in life, it's a good one.
And I'm not even getting Pappadeaux on this trip, even though time permits...although if they delay my flight once more, I might change my mind and flock over to C terminal for a po-boy and pie to go!

Quick two day business trip. Not a slow week.
