Wow. What *didn't* I do today! Sci Museum, Nat Hist Museum, Victoria & Albert Museum, and Harrods! Each place could take a day alone. #
Monday is starting to look iffy. Apparently, I can take a train to Madrid and fly from there. Should I wait it out or…? #

Hard crash corrupted my mail prefs. Got older copy via VPN from work server. Time Machine FTW! #
On hold with travel agent to move my most certainly to-be-canceled Sat flight to Sun. I wonder why the long hold time? #
Got my room extended for Sat night. Charing £210. How reasonable. #sellersmarket #
@WilHarris Can you link the the wallpaper? in reply to WilHarris #
What's with my typing? Most of my tweets have had at least one typo. Sorry. #
After an hour on hold, no available flights on Sunday. Booked on Monday. Hotel extended, too. Weekend in London, now what? #
I got a kick that the UK paper The Independent is calling this "Ash Thursday." #
No, seriously, I now have all day Saturday and all day Sunday to tour in and around London. Suggestions? Museum, show, countryside? #
I don't mind being alone or touring alone (I like to just wander) but I really don't like eating alone (esp at a restaraunt). Too sad. #

My flight home is in jeopardy. This could make for a story. http://tinyurl.com/y4828ox #
My flight home isn't until tomorrow (10a) but inbound flights and bumped passengers may cause much grief. I'll be at Heathrow early. #
My flight has been officially cancelled. Another day or two in London? #
So, I here in London at least until Saturday and most likely Sunday before I can come home. #
@justkristin I'll try to make the best of it. A story, indeed! in reply to justkristin #

At Bucking ham Palace and there's a lot of folks here. Is something going to happen? #
Darn spell check. It looks like the Queen's guard is changing. Fortuitous timing. #buckingham #
Interesting that there's better weather here in London than in SoCal. #
Just fried out my voltage adapter. I may have drawn too much current on the 50W setting but the 1600W is not for electronics. :-( #

In London. Interesting already; customs was easy but train service is disrupted so I'll be taking a few transfers to get downtown. #
They *really* want you to "mind the gap" on the train. #
I admit it. I took my iPad around the corner to the London Apple Store to show the employees since it's not out yet in the UK. #

Last minute packing before heading to the airport. I'm going to have fun but will miss my family. :-( #
Sitting at gate waiting for my flight to SFO (then on to London). Thanks SAN for the free WiFi! #
So, out of frustration with my trip, Becky is thinking about throwing a trip together for her and the kids while I'm gone. Should I worry? #
Haven't deplaned yet in SFO and my connection starts boarding in 10 minutes. Ugh. #
Nevermind, I'm good. I just didn't know if I had to deal with TSA again while switching terminals. Now boarding. #

Many people are out sick today and I'm getting on a plane for London tomorrow. *uh oh* #
So the illness *may* have been the salad from our department lunch. Bad: I had some. Good: I feel fine (so far) #
Excited about going to London for the first time tomorrow but must temper it since Becky doesn't like that I'm going and she's not. #

@macappstorm having fun here with my 16G and am trying to get used to trusting the keyboard. #
That was a really long earthquake! #
Wow, I've been using this thing almost all day and still have 35% battery left. #ipad #

Wow that was exceedingly easy. In and out in under five minutes with 16G iPad in hand. #

Had my first Japanese class this morning. It was the fastest hour of my life and my head hurts. It'll be good, though. #
RT @kcase An iPad is lk a big iPod touch…just lk a swimming pool is a big bathtub. When was the last time U played water polo in a bathtub? #
