I need a ticket for a jet plane....

Moments after I sent an email with a signature line wishing for rain, it started to pour outside. I took off my glesses and stood in the water, hands up. Sweet water, rain coming down. I have the windows open to the sound.

"I'll give you a call when I get to my place in San Jose and you can tell me everything, and I'll tell you a little in order to remain mysterious. Sound good?"

Kevin's in California, and now I'm wondering if I can find a couple hundred for a plane ticket and a few days there. Never had any desire to go to California before. But now he's there and he is one of the few people I can talk to without fear. He knows me pretty well. I want to go, I need to go. Damn it.

Where in California would you go, San Jose? If so, let me know and I'll come down and say hi!

Check expedia.com, travel on off peak days, and check the airlines for last minute flight specials. If you are willing to take off on a few days notice you can get amazing deals.

Good ideas. I need to figure out exactly when he is going to be there, and then, I'm ready to go on a moment's notice.

Yep, San Jose. My best friend from high school is going to Stanford for grad school, yay!

Try San Francisco or Oakland airports too, more flights go in to those airports, so you may find a better deal. You can take CalTrain from San Francisco to Palo Alto. Let me know if you end up there and I'll get you better directions. Or meet you at the airport and tuck you in on the train.

Excellent. I shall do much researching tomorrow, when I'm not so cafienated and jumpy. It wrecks my typing, you see.

Mmm trains. I love trains.

Ahh... it's thinking about raining here. I sure hope we get some. I was worried it was going to hit on the way home while I was on my bike.

I haven't seen rain since one night in Prague, where I stood on the doorstep of the kolej and watched it come down through the street lights. It was beautiful. Quiet.
