... leavin' on a jet plane.

Today I fly. I left Houston at around 8:00 this morning and I am in Dallas. I leave here around 11:00 for LA. In LA I have a 7-1/2 hr. layover, so I will probably go see what I can see (close to the airport). From there its on to Auckland. I leave LA at 8:30PM-ish Pacific time, and will arrive in NZ at around 5:30AM NZ time (which will be around 11:30AM central standard, or "home" time). I also fly over the international date line, so I will completely skip Monday. I will touch down in Auckland on Tuesday morning. Although I understand the principle behind it, its still a bit tough to wrap one's mind around. Jet-lag, here I come!
