I was seriously worried, you guys.

Well, dear readers, I have another Of-Corsica moment for you. I was sleeping on the ferry to Toulon at four in the morning on a long couch in the lounge when the loud turning of the motor slowed, stopped. Are we here already? Mmm, ten hours on a boat sure went by quickly--gasp. It was still dark outside, no lights on shore in sight. We were in the middle of the sea. The lights in the lounge dimmed and the boat (again, another giant cruise ship) rocked. Violently. The curtains swayed as the waves outside, untethered by the motor pushing the boat, crashed one side of the Titantic, then the other. I felt nauseous and said a Hail Mary. Seriously, people. I was 89% ready to call Zack and tell him to call the proverbial embassy to make the funeral arrangments.
