the drinks with which I have been toasting the past 40 hours have evolved from orange juice to champagne to wine to coffee to more coffee to green tea.

here's to the fancy premium members lounge.

here's to ignoring the sleep-in-comfort verticality feature in business class chairs.

here's to just sitting up enjoying in-flight entertainment whilst getting relatively pissed.

here's to arriving home.

here's to toilets you can put toilet paper in.

here's to warm showers.

here's to home-cooked meals that involve neither rice nor beans, and neither waffles nor maple syrup.

here's to my extremely senile cat holding out whilst I was away again.

here's to nearly falling asleep on the train.

here's to walking in the cold to stay awake.

here's to caffeine-induced heart palpitations.

here's to beating jet lag.

...better save that last one til tomorrow. Can't be too sure yet.
