Hopping on the Metal Bird

Well, I'm leaving for China tonight. Yikes. I'm just about packed. Just need to update my ipod, pack the cameras, and take a shower. Still very nervous.
I didn't get much sleep last night, so I'm exhausted. That may be a good thing though. Maybe I'll actually sleep on the plane.

We had a nice mini-breakfast with my mother- and father-in-law today. I don't think I've been up for an 8am breakfast in a long time. Eric was in Shanghai about a year ago, so he was giving me some good pointers. I definitely appreciated it. =) If he survived the trip, maybe I will too.. lol!

On another note, I'm really going to miss Jeremy. And the kittens and goldfish. But mostly Jeremy. =P He's got quite a few projects planned for while I'm gone. Modifying his roller-blades, watching movies I hate, computer games, unhealthy food, and a new blog sound like they're just some of his projects. ha! His new blog should be interesting. I'll let you know if he ever gets around to it. Part of me hopes he does, and part of me dreads the idea of Jeremy unleashing his ideas into the world. =P

Well, I hear his hockey game calling to me... I'll post asap when I get to China. Love you all!!

So Out of Touch

We FINALLY have internet again.. Took long enough. We've moved into our new place, but alas, the unpacking is not finished. The painting is getting there. Jeremy just finished the bathroom and it looks fabulous. Very Blue. The Sunroom needs a few touch-ups still, but its also looking good. We haven't even started on the kitchen, living room, dinning room, bedroom or hallway yet....
It will have to wait.
I just finished my midterms and now it is OFFICIALLY time to get ready for CHINA!!! I leave on Saturday night. Can you believe it?!?! We've been planning this trip for so long and its finally here. (Very much reminds me of wedding planning. On a lesser and totally not as awesome scale of course... ;-) ).
Meanwhile, I've actually begun to realize that we'll be on a plane for 14+ hours... My flying phobia is kicking into high gear. I know its illogical, but we'll call it my vice.. =P I stocked up on Advil PM, so I will be taking it.. A LOT of it...
I've heard that facebook is completely blocked out there, so I'm really hoping that blogspot is unblocked for the couple weeks we'll be there. Otherwise I'll have to rely on (*gasp*) phone calls and postcards.... =/ Oh my. I actually created a skype account today, so hopefully that will be fully functional as well.

Cross your fingers for me. I'll be on again before we leave... off to ZUMBA to relieve some very high stress levels. =P
