Just got back from Dubai and have been suffering the vagaries of the nine hour time zone shift. William Gibson’s wonderful book Pattern Recognition has an apt description of jet lag:
Damien’s theory of jet lag is correct: that her mortal soul is leagues behind her, being reeled in on some ghostly umbilical down the vanished wake of the plane that brought her here, hundreds of thousands of feet above the Atlantic. Souls can’t move that quickly, and are left behind, and must be awaited, upon arrival, like lost luggage.
The book is a treat in general. See you more often..
