I'm Shipping Up To Boston

It's 12:13am right now.  At 8am my parents are driving me to Boston, where we'll first stop at my Brookline apartment to load up the belongings I left behind last weekend, then off to the airport.  Hopefully we'll have time for a sit down lunch as our final 3/4 Marcus Hurrah before I fly out (my sister Madison is already back at school--Binghamton University--so she can't come with us).  My two suitcases-to-be-checked are somewhere between 70 and 72 pounds each, so we'll see if British Airways decides to be nice or nasty.  My adorable pink rolling carry-on suitcase is stuffed to the brim, though I refuse to use the zip out extendable portion of any of my suitcases.  My carry-on "purse" is also packed full of novels, puzzle books, magazines, iPods, and other travel necessities, and hopefully my Mac will fit in there in the morning.

I spoke to Sarah J. for awhile tonight and it reminded me of all the last-minute things I'm going to end up leaving unfinished, not to mention the fact that my bedroom at home is a disaster and I'm exhausted.

It's really happening.  At least, I think it is.  Pinch me?  Is this a dream?

My next post will be coming from Abu Dhabi, or perhaps Heathrow Airport if I can find some free wireless during my layover.  Lailah tov.
