38 degrees in Mason Michigan.  Well this is it, the day I leave for Thailand, sort of.  I have been preparing for this move for a month now.  Last week I ground my teeth so bad my jaw hurt.  After my going away party on Saturday I felt like I was on a slide straight to the airport.  Ready or not here I come. 

I am also so amazed how excitement and nervousness seem to be the same emotion.  I have been asked both if I am nervous and if I am exited.  The answer is always “Yes” but the actual emotion seems to be the same.  So now I am off to the airport where I will fly to LA, the first leg of my journey.  Here I go.
