piploverLess than a week before I take of for England! I'm getting so excited! Plans are coming together, and I'm really looking forward to this! Not to mention almost 2 weeks of no work! This is the first vacation I've taken in almost 2 years. I'm so burnt out right now, I hope that when I get back I'm re-energized and ready to go. If nothing else, I'll hopefully be all that much more psyched about looking for a new job!
I fly out on April 7th, my Grandma's birthday. She passed away in 2003, but I know she'll be watching over me. It's going to be a very, very long day, lol! I fly out at 9am from my local airport to Seattle, and then from Seattle to New York, and then from New York to London. I arrive in England at 10:40am on the 8th, so it will be about 3am my time when I land. Wow! It's times like these I wish caffeine worked on me like it does other people. It usually just makes me sleepy!
My sister isn't meeting me at the airport. Instead, she's going to give me directions to meet her at the tube? I think? She hasn't been very specific.
So if anyone sees a very tired, lost looking soul wandering around London, take pity, as it might be me, lol.
Although, I must say the first thing I know I'll want to do, after I shower off the airport germs, eewww, is go to a pub for some real fish and chips! Ohhhh, fish and chips! Really, that's the only reason I'm going to England, don't ya know.
Well, that and the Sherlock Holmes museum. :-p
Seriously, though, I'm looking forward to seeing my sister, much as I rather dread the two of us in close proximity for more than a few hours. I think we'll have fun! Now that she's got over the Poland trip, I hope it will go smoothly.
Anyway, I'm packing my bag today, even though it's a bit early. My mom is leaving for California on Sunday, and she has a bunch of stuff she got for my sister, so I'm carrying it over for her. That means she wants to pack it all up for me, so my suitcase will be all ready to go on Saturday, lol. Oh, goodness!
I'm so excited!!
