Time travel is BOSS

What am I doing in London??? I don't quite understand. Yet here I am. No worries. I made it across the Atlantic safe and sound. You'll all have to forgive what may be a very strange post right now. I was on a plane at 9:30 last night in NY and 6 hours later I arrived in London at 9:30 a.m. Like I said, time travel rocks...but not really when you're losing sleepy time. I'm a little out of it...and I'm dirty...and I won't get to bathe until late tonight or tomorrow. My body thinks it's 7:42 in the morning and it's wondering why I've been up since 4 and why I only slept for 4 hours and what in the world everybody keeps saying "cheers" for and why my poor little toesies are so swollen because I slept sitting up instead of horizontally like a normal person. I could barely get my shoes on this morning when I was getting ready to get off the plane. I had to switch immediately to the Old Navy flops. Man I need a nap. I'm no good to anyone right now. I'll update more later when I'm rested and can function mentally. I just wanted to let you all know that I'm here safe and sound. London's not all too different from NY. The buildings are just shorter and it's a lot cleaner. Other notable cultural differences include (but are not limited to):
-In the US, the bathroom sign woman wears an A-line skirt whereas in the UK she wears a hoop skirt.
-London takes WAY more pride in their subway system. Have y'all been here?? It's SOOOO nice...and you can understand the announcements so you know where you're going and what stop is next and everything!!

Alrighty, I'm going to head up to Buckingham Palace now and see what I can see. I only have about 3-4 hours before I need to work on getting myself to the other airport to head to Italy.

Yeah, I'm done thinking.
