Delayed gratification

I just heard from Ben and he was detained last night, causing him to miss his flight out. He's getting everything sorted out today and tomorrow, and should be able to leave the country by Saturday evening, which will get him here by Sunday night - about the same time as today's flight. He's pretty distraught about the whole thing, as he was just as anxious to be here as I was to have him visit.

However, as sad as I am that his visit is slightly delayed, there is a bright side... Now I can write my papers without distraction. So, for now, I'm choosing to focus on the positive - despite the desire to throw a little pity-party.

Pity? Party of One?

Sorry.....but maybe a few days to be better prepared is for the best.
Still be ever mindful of your safety!
