Marathon visits

It probably is my fault in attempting to fit too many appointments in too little time, but I'm simply trying to take advantage of a rare visit to my hometown. This I know is too much and a way of playing with fire and – in the end – ticking off everyone, my family, my friends and me.

Should I stay longer when I visit and see even more people, have more time and be more relaxed doing it? Perhaps, but these quantities are difficult to precisely assess and the last thing I want is more time to kill...
