Departure for the Emerald Isle

Wow.
I leave in four days.
Thats it.

The more I get ready for this trip, the more I find myself wondering if I'm ready for it.
Its going to be one huge adventure, thats for sure.
Good thing I'm up for a challenge, ne?

The hardest part of packing seems to be figuring out how many outfits are too many...either that or narrowing down my shoe collection. Either way, its proving to be very interesting...to say the least.

Now if only my computer will behave itself and actually WORK while I'm over there; that would be great. Otherwise, I run a significant chance of getting my head chopped off by a few friends in the States who will not be so thrilled if they can't get ahold of me. :)

Is it self-serving to wish the Irish blessing upon myself for this journey? I sure hope not.
Well, I'm off to pack and narrow down options some more.
One package of toothpaste or two?
And how many pairs of shoes does a spunky Irish-American need for a 9 month trip?
I'm not sure, but I bet I'll find out.
How's that for whistling in the dark?

So. In the words of Carol Sobieski, "How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard. "

ja, ne?
