Less than 24 hours until Dennis gets home from Florida.  I've been telling
Vino that his daddy is on his way and I think it's making him very excited!

Poor Dennis is going to be destroyed after his flight.  It's taking him 3
days to get home if you include the time difference.  He's flying from West
Palm Beach to New York to Frankfurt to Singapore to Penang.  I don't envy
him.
It just sucks that he has to do this every year.  I almost wish he was
banned from the US like our friend Ron who's also a pilot with the company.
Ron got arrested in Whistler 20 years ago when he was 18 for smoking pot.
Now that they have this stricter Homeland Security business, Ron has landed
on a list of people banned from entering the US.  So the company has to send
someone out to his job (he's based in Baku) to do his training every year
instead of having him come to Florida.  He can apply for an exemption but
for some reason seems to be dragging his feet with that ;-)

Vino's doing much better since puking up the hairball.  He's full of the
zoomies every morning and evening.  There is a large carpet rug under the
coffee table and this is very new to Vino since he's never lived in a place
with any carpet or rugs before.  He loves to lie on the rug and pull himself
along with his claws.  He ducks under the coffee table and gets his bug
eyed, perky eared kittenish look and he loves to play "attack the hand"
under there.  Very cute :-)
