China Reflections: Jet lag is kicking my arse

My flight finally landed in Boston's Logan Airport at about 7:30a EST this morning, after a 1.25 hour delay last night in San Francisco (due to plane unavailability, and the flurry of passenger reassignments from a cancelled American Airlined flight earlier in the day). Despite the fact that I took a Unisom with a perfect vanilla milkshake that really hit the spot, and sleeping through the whole flight, I'm entirely too tired.

I had plans for today. Stay awake to write posts and Flickr photos and check email. Fight jetlag with every fiber of my being. Reset my circadian clock to sleep at night and be refreshed to head to PLA at the Hynes bright-eyed and bushy-tailed in the AM. Alas, I have been defeated, and slept quite a bit today. I s'pose the 13 hour flight from Hong Kong to SFO didn't help that much, either.

I'll see what I can get up on the blog and the photostream, but whatever I don't post from my China trip tonight will have to wait until after PLA, since I don't want to futz with both at the same time. This might be considered cheating, but I'm going to date the posts for their actually date of occurence, so that they will appear in the proper order in the archive.

Many thanks to Steve at See Also, host of the most recent Carnival of Infosciences, for the pointer!
