Heading Off To Africa...
So, this is my last entry from the US. Assuming that I have access to the Internet (which I will), my next entries will come from Africa.
I was starting to think that this day wouldn't come. The last four days at work seemed three times that, and I was so happy to get out, I almost skipped down the hallway. It's funny, I will not return to work for seven weeks from tomorrow. That is a strange feeling indeed.
Everything on this end seems to be in order. I've hyper-managed my bank account to transfer $500 a week into my checking account, and have calculated the balance with my bills and paychecks, so that some weeks I even transfer money back into my savings account. It's really remarkably anal, but hey, I was bored. I paid my bills, I set up payments for the next two months, I called the credit companies to tell them I'm leaving, I've been vaccinated, had a hair cut, trimmed my beard, packed my stuff, all the stuff that one can possibly do short of just getting on the plane and getting the heck out of here.
And that is next. That is now.
