I am at home and exhaustion has set in. The kittens are by my side ready to go to bed. So far there are no signs of any permanent or even semi-permanent emotional damage. Lost luggage got delivered by man who expected a tip. I was pissed off so of course I didn't give him one, maybe also the fact that I have 14 cents total in material posession. If you can't tip well, don't tip at all - it's more of an insult to give a low tip than no tip. So are the little lessons of life etiquette. Hello, life. Kristina, signing on. Tomorrow morning I will unpack and deconstruct the life I have just left. I miss it already.
