Well, here I am in Guam
I arrived late last night (early this morning, really) after 24 hours in airplanes and airports. First there was a 13 hour flight to Tokyo, then a layover (about 4 hours), and then over three hours to Guam.
I showed up beat (and without a rental-car reservation, which added more time).
The time difference is huge. Right now it’s 3:38 pm here, but 38 minutes past midnight in Ann Arbor (which is Friday night, really). In the morning, I can talk to people in Michigan (where they’re about to go to bed), and, if I stay up a little late, I can catch them right when they get up.
There is zero overlap during the work-day, which makes contacting the office annoying.

Huh. It IS kind of ugly there.
