5 days and counting

phew...I think I'm finally past the "nervous" stage and moving full-throtle into the TOTALLY EXCITED AND ECSTATIC phase of planning this trip.  I don't know why I was nervous there for a while because that's not really my nature.  I think it really was just falling into a grey space between "nothing else to plan" and "what's going to happen when we get there?"  But, I think I've learned to accept the fact that whatever happens from here on out is fate.  There's really not much more I can do to get ready (other than pack, which has already started).  Every night, I have been working on my Italian, so that is keeping my brain occupied.  I'm to the point where every day at work is DRAGGING on and all I can think about is getting on that plane on Sunday!!  I don't think this week could possibly go by fast enough!

ummm....well...I did lie about not being able to think about anything else.  I am also thinking a lot about March Madness, of course.  With family and work traditions, I am bombarded by brackets and need to get that finished!!!  GO Aggies!!!  And Blue Devils!!! 

I hope to get at least one more post here before we leave...but just in case that doesn't happen...ciao!  I promise lots of pictures and journal entries when we return.
