In under twenty-four hours, I will be out of here. Out of this state, on my way out of the country, down to a tropical paradise where the temperatures for the week are expected to be in the high eighties with overnight lows in the mid-seventies. Wow. I am still in disbelief. I've been working on finishing up the packing. I need to get out to the drug store and pick up a couple of necessities. Yesterday I bought new sunglasses and finished my laundry so I am doing pretty well. In under eighteen hours I'll be on a plane. I haven't been on a plane in five years so I'm rather excited about it. ;) And then just a short time after that I'll be on a boat floating out into the sunset. I am the luckiest girl in the whole world.

I don't really know what else to say right now. I'm kind of feeling strange being home right at the moment. Nobody else is here but my dad and we've been hanging out and talking and stuff... I dunno. I'm kind of in a transition spot right now. I love my family but right now I'm just anxiously waiting around home for stuff to happen. Waiting for Locke to get here, waiting for tomorrow to come, waiting to get started on this cruise, waiting to get to work on my tan. :) And at the back of my mind... waiting to get back, waiting to see what is going to happen after I return. Waiting waiting waiting. So as much as I love being home and I love my family and my dogs and cat... I don't exactly want to be just sitting around doing nothing right at the moment. I want to be keeping myself busy so I'll stop thinking about this waiting waiting waiting. :) Cause we all know time just DRAGS by when you're waiting for something!!!!!

Hmm... on a completely unrelated side note... I love my parents' keyboard. I think I could just type on this thing all day. Very cool. :)

So yeah... this is gonna be the last you're all going to hear from me until FRIDAY!!! and by then I'll be tan and relaxed and happy and full of things to share. Boy it's gonna be awesome.

Happy spring break everyone. Oh and happy Saint Patrick's Day tomorrow. See you all on the flip side!!!!!!!!
