I finally arrived back home today, after being away from it for a full 6 weeks. I was staying at a friend's place in Johannesburg ( I live in cape town).

I was there for several reasons, but primarily for a course I was teaching for one week, a set of plane tickets booked to germany from johannesburg and also to see some friends who had returned from 3 months overseas.

My trip however got extended by my laptop dying, and me only having a replacement in Johannesburg, where I was at the time.

Had my laptop died here in Cape Town, I would have been stuck.. so even though I was incredibly tired of being away from home , I guess I am going to put it up to fate saying I had to stay in JHB for a while longer.

Nonetheless, I love being able to sleep in my own bed again *g*
