countdown: four days

well. it's already 17 minutes into tuesday at the time of this scribbling.

it's funny how everything seems to come to a head when you've felt like you've had all the time in the world to do things a week or two ago.

amidst the packing, getting things done before i leave, i suddenly find myself with less and less time as last minute things start popping up.

dinner with the 27 guys either later tonight or on wednesday and a (really) early christmas party with the csa people on thursday has suddenly seen a huge chunk of packing and prep time taken out of the equation.

not that it's a bad thing though as i get to see just about everyone before the so called "great american adventure".

my room still looks very much like a mess... and my stuff remains unpacked though set aside from the stuff that will stay.

still, i'm eager to see america a third time.

especially with a lot of snow tossed into the package this time around.
