Countdown to Ireland & Scotland - Thursday
Alright, one more day to go and then I'm off this continent! Can't wait, but I'm sure I've said that a million times before. Thankfully its been a somewhat busy week at work so the time has passed a decent pace, and hell, its already 3:30 in the afternoon and this is the first chance I've had to sit and collect my thoughts all day long. The day started out with running some upgrades to this crappy app I've been fighting to get fixed for the past two months. Of course the upgrade didn't fix our main problem, hell, it actually broke something else. In the end, that was kind of a good thing because in order to get it working again we had to make some changes that should actually make this one thing work better. I could go into detail, but its boring, so I'll spare you. So I still fight with the tech support people to get this thing fixed, so it'll definitely be hanging over my head when I get back. Oh well, what ya gonna do?
So I packed last night and I'm a little worried my suitcase weighs too much. Either that or I'm a wimp, and honestly, option 2 is a viable one. I'm going to drag the thing to my mom's office (she works for a doctor so they have a scale, something we don't have in the house) so I can weigh the damn thing. It better come in at under 70 pounds or I'm going to have to offload a lot of my clothes, since they can't get crushed, unlike most of Elena's stuff, into a duffell bag of some sort. If the weight is OK, I'm good to go because the only thing I have to add to it are bathroom stuff, and maybe one pair of shorts to sleep in, and thats it. I'm good to go baby!!!! I so can't wait to get there... and there I go again, repeating myself.
Other than that, nothing new to report. Elena is psyched about me coming, which is great to hear, instead of the usual, "I'm too busy to get excited," line I've gotten in the past. This time I think its the opposite, she has nothing to do but work part time, so she's got all the time to think about it and get excited. And also she really has changed the way she is, which is a good thing. And I think we're going to have to have a somewhat serious talk when I get there. Not about anything bad, I just need to tell her something I've been meaning to for awhile, but not everything has fallen into place until recently. And no, I'm not asking her to marry me, I'm not getting engaged. If I was going to do that, I think Paris would've been the best location to do that! I just want to talk to her about some stuff that happened in the past, thats all.
Alright, thats it. Enough babbling by me. I'll check in again tomorrow as we wait the tortuous wait to leave for the airport, wait at the airport, wait on the plane... all that fun stuff. On a good note, I should have Internet access we're I'm staying, in both countries so I may make a post, or put up some pictures at my .Mac site. I make no promises though. Adios for now!
