Leaving on a Jet Plane

In exactly 7 hours from now I will be boarding a plane that will take me to another plane that will take me to Japan. You may ask, am I ready? Am I packed and prepared? The answer is a resounding No. Packed, maybe. Prepared, not a chance.

And yet, I have accomplished so much. I have called my good friends, visited with my family, and ended the summer on a reasonably relaxing note. I think that despite the last minute packing frenzy and endless lists of things to do and not forget, I have managed to keep something of the subdued and easygoing mood that defined this summer. I will exit the country satisfied and refreshed.
