I just woke up. Its 8 am. Today I leave for Italy at 6:24 pm. That means I have about 10 hours left in the United States, my birthplace and home for the last four decades.
It doesn't feel like its actually happening. I was told the chances of a funded trip were slight. Then, getting the passport so quick was another slight chance. So I feel like today is a dream I'm about to wake from.
Anyway, I'm pretty much ready. Now I just wait. I am teaching at the gym for two hours so that will eat up a nice chunk of time. And I need to do my electronic check-in for the airfare tickets. I need to take a bike over to Chris Shenton's place. Otherwise I've got nothing to do but twiddle my thumbs.
Enough melancholy! I'm off to Italy today!
Pictures will be at my flickr account here:
