i'm back, just in time to leave.

well, i felt like today would be the perfect day to restart my blog. i'm leaving for germany and the netherlands for the next three weeks, and i felt like i needed a way to keep the trip documented. (particularly a way that those without facebook could read)

anyhow. i'm pretty much ready. except for packing. i have to pack all of my clothes, and the stuff that i got for miriam and her family. and my camera. and my chargers for everything under the sun. BUT, i really am pretty much ready to go.

i ended up waking up in a panic last night, and it took several hours to get back to sleep. i probably should have taken one of the ativan pills to help me get back to sleep, but i figured i should save them for the trip.

there is definitely some anxiety going through me right now. but i always get this way before a trip. as i've never left the country, this has been particularly intensified. what if i forget something? what if i do something "wrong"? what if what if what if!?

ah well, can't let it get to me! for now, i have GOT to get some packing done!

oh, and ps. don't try removing all of the keys from a macbook in order to clean them/it. it is quite difficult to get them back on, and breaking the housing for some of them is inevitable.
