London

Well today I leave for London. Yikes! It's exciting. It's nerve-wracking. Its a new experience.

Passport ready! And yes, it's an awful picture. For some reason things that have "flat" pictures always give me chubber cheeks. It's a very odd thing. Had to take a new license pic... same deal.

Well, yesterday was a fun slam everything in my suitcase and run to Houston, since we were late. Harm and I decided I could repack here with the things I really do want. So that's what I did this morning. Repacked, folded, stuffed. I might need to lessen it more. Not sure yet. I need to have room to bring my family stuff back. Haha! But I'll bet I was a sight in the little Sky convertible with a huge suitcase on my lap because trying to get it into the trunk was funny and unlikely.

Geez, I am so nervous I have never been overseas before! I know it'll be great. I know it's an experience that I've always wanted, so I am not complaining.... but the butterflies are making good work of my stomach.

By 9:30 a.m. tomorrow I will be in London. Their time. What it'll be like 3:30 here? Geez... jetlag should be interesting!

I'm going to try and put some of my newest poems on my other blog real quick. :)

Hey folks,

I know it's been forever!! So here's a mini-update...

1) I've moved! I am no longer living with the crazy overly religious/judgmental girl! Freedom!! Today I went to move out the rest of my stuff. She never asked me to leave it, had told me I could keep it there until August. She wrote me 2 days ago and said I had to get it out before my trip (I leave on Saturday) or her dad was going to sell it. I was unhappy about that. I mean ask me to move it nicely, okay... but threaten to SELL it??

2) My trip............. LONDON!!!! Yes, I am serious. :D Going for 4 days. I have friends that are going for business and asked me to tag along. I'm thrilled, never been out of the country - only been to Canada & Mexico outside of the USA.

3) I got my acceptance letter from Blinn. YAY!!! But they want me to send them my SAT scores. Joy.

4) Jeff, my ex, has his new gf living with him for the last month. They started dating in January. That's really nice for my son. I think he called her Mom. :( Jeff promised he wouldn't allow that. But why should I trust him. Oh yeah, I don't. :)
