Wellllll.
It is 9 pm. The suitcase is locked and by the door. My outfit is laid out. I really don't think well at 4 a.m.
I have the jittery "what have I forgot", oh my god, "I will sleep in", and what if I miss the plane syndrome. I won't with Bill in charge of getting me up. He says he has a bucket of water on standby.
Alanna and Jill were here tonight. Alanna and I snuggled. Alanna was very sad. Grandma was teary. It's only 30 days.
Jackie has emailed to say she is waiting for me.
I have checked the weather forecasts for Calgary, San Francisco and Osaka. It looks good except that it is a complete fog out right now in Calgary. Not to worry!?
I have the two cans of beer packed. Anyone care to bet whether it makes it to Osaka. It is bubble wrapped, then taped, then in a ziplock in my crocks in plastic bags. Oi.
I must try to go to bed and sleep. I am about to start my Japan adventure.
I will blog when I next see what day it is.
Jackie tells me her laptop is dying. This will not deter me.
All my love
