Press on, Press on! Seeing as how I am not fluent in British accented slang, I turn on the close captioning, so I don’t miss a word. 😉

Nothing. I had just gotten home from the airport a few hours earlier, so I was really tired. I think I fell asleep by about 10 pm.

Do I count as a “stay-at-home?” I spent most of New Years Eve in an airplane flying across the country, but I got home late that afternoon.
