Sitting In An Empty Apartment

It's interesting to be sitting in our apartment that we've spent three years furnishing and making exactly the type of home we wanted to spend time in and now it's all packed up and moved away. You go through life with different missions- there was no buying of accent pieces or kitchenware this weekend. That phase it over for the time being. This weekend was spent in REI and EMS- a new focus on life. We leave for our trip in less then a month and it's finally starting to hit me. To travel around the world is something people talk about and dream about but to actually pick a departure date is another thing. I feel pretty lucky to say "we're traveling around the world"? THE WORLD IS HUGE- or is it?

Getting the blogspot up and runnin'....

So, t-minus 5 1/2 weeks before the we take off outta Canahdaduh... and it's gonna fly by. I don't have another chill weekend (in Boston) from now until go time. Gonna be great though, making it a point to meet all sorts of folks I haven't seen in a while before we take off. The most interesting finding ... I'm meeting up with people now who I haven't seen in over a year, seeking them out like I will not seem them FOREVER, but in reality.. I won't see them for, most likely, the amount of time I have already not seen them... you know what I'm sayin? I don't.
