If you're wondering where I've gone for 2 months...

You apparently haven't been paying attention. I am going to Ireland until May 2nd, as you know - but I won't be writing on THIS particular blog while I'm there. I'll be writing on THIS one.

I can't believe I'm only a day away. HEART ATTACK! I'm going to go pack. And do laundry. Actually I should probably do laundry first...

Anyway. So that's where I'll be for a while yet - I'll be writing of all my adventures on my other blog. If you're interested, please follow along! And if you have another means of conversing with me, I'd love to hear from you and keep in touch with the folks back at home. Till we meet again here, in May, then!

Fourrrrrr daaaayyyysssss

Well. Yesterday was my last day of work, and I spent all day today shopping with Kate, spending $135 on millions of tiny necessary traveling items. I hate spending money. I don't remember the last time I bought something, aside from gasoline. Aannnnnd I have to go shopping even MORE in the next three days. Tomorrow is basically my last day of socialization before the heavy-duty packing and organizing begins. Friday I teach, go to Costco to buy a camera, and go to a leadership meeting for mime in the evening. Saturday I am going to pack, because apparently Sunday is a family day and I must have everything done by then. Then we leave at 5 AM on Monday morning. Oh my gosh. The days are going by so quickly. I'm actually a bit frightened... but the excitement is starting to kick in.

Except... drama. sigh. There are SO many more serious things going on in the world - I know that. My little life problems really don't matter. But they sure give me insomnia and a headache.

On the up-side... my room is going to be very clean and dust-free in about an hour.
