Whirlwind Weeks

All I have to say about the past few weeks is, DAY-AM. I also want to say that I probably have the best set of friends of family in the world.

Highlights included:

• My 31st birthday party at the Rhino.
• Doing the ugly cry during lunch on my last day of work.
• My going away party at the Groundhog. I did shots and cried uncontrollably all night. It was like first year university all over again.
• Doing the ugly and hysterical cry at the airport while saying goodbye to Chris.
• Upgrading my seat at the airport so that they’d waive my extra baggage fee.
• Lining up for over an hour at customs. I nearly got into a fight with a woman who tried to cut in front of me in line.
• The taxi ride from Gatwick. The guy was a hot 25-year-old Afghan who was engaged to his cousin. (Thanks Gina!)
• My first British grocery shop at Sainsbury, where I bought one of my fave wines for 4 pounds! Booze at the grocery store. I’m in big trouble.
• Playing in the backyard with Hannah and Ethan.
• Video chatting with Chris, Clarence and Nancy.
• Calling my parents at 2AM London time as there is now an 8 hour time difference between us.

Tomorrow, I think I’ll sleep in for a change. It’s only been three days and I feel as tired now as when I was working. Some habits die hard I guess.
