world tour '09

so i just landed in Hong Kong and got to my usual spot of the Sheraton.

tomorrow will be and early day as I need to catch an 8:45 ferry to Fu Yong (schenzhen airport) and then meet up with some vendors for the next few days.  I'll start to add pictures from the trip tomorrow night as I haven't taken any so far today.

I had a rough flight out though.  Had a middle seat that sucked.  And some whiny neighbors.  Took an ambien to help me sleep, but the combination of ambien and a glass or red wine did not work well for me.  I had to get up in the middle of the flight because i was feeling light headed and barely made it to the bathroom when I fell down....that's right, I actually fell down onto the floor of the airplane outside the bathroom doors.....people crowded around me to make sure I was OK, and I was, I just totally lost my balance and fell.  I didn't even try not too, it was too late.  They helped me up and I laughed, a bit embarrassed and just went into the bathroom to chill for a second.

I didn't get *sick*, no throwing up, just felt ill and then starting sweating for about 5 minutes.  it was crazy.  NOT good and lesson learned.  Red Wine OR Ambien, NOT BOTH.

good think is that I was able to fall back asleep and felt fine for the rest of the flight.  and now here I am.
