Wrappin’ up
Ahhh – 1 more week until I leave to go to a foreign place! Okay, not like a foreign, foreign place, but someplace I’ve never been. S Carolina! I’m actually looking forward to leaving Seattle and getting on with this trip.
I gave notice last Monday. It was not nearly as painful as I thought (although I still shed a tear – I can’t help it – I’m ridiculous). Anyway, my boss told me he was kind of expecting it since I was being much too proactive about things and I usually wait until the very last moment to do stuff. Hmmmm, guess working together for almost 8 years kind of does that to ya…
Another thing I’ve been doing is packing and purging and purging and packing (don’t worry, not the stomach variety – I’ve never had that ability to be able to get myself to upchuck on command – I think it’s a genetic skill). I think John and I were anticipating our bags to be quite a bit lighter than they’re ending up (like in the 25 lb range instead of the 30+ range). But we kind of figure if we have the room for that extra bottle of sunscreen and bug spray we might as well keep them ’cause we’ll be using lots of it at our first stop! Africa!
Anyway, that’s about it…seeing a few friends for one last time…then on Sunday – whoosh! Seatac>Atlanta>Charlotte>Camden! (wish those transporter things like in Startrek work – man, that sounds kind of like a long day)…
