rarin' to go

Today was much more productive than I thought it would be, but much less relaxing as well. My errands all went beautifully :) Well, the yarn store was a bit difficult because I didn't think to convert the yards needed for my project to meters, and I'm pretty sure that the lady at the store was converting them totally wrong. In the end, I just bought a ton of yarn, and if I've got a bunch left over, I'll use it for something else.
I'm just working on last minute things now, like preparing a breakfast to bring with me on my ridiculously early flight where food will be ridiculously expensive. And where you have to pay $15 for a little mini movie player. Actually, there's good in that, because if there's no movie playing, I won't be tempted to watch it instead of sleeping. I think it will be important to sleep. Did I tell you I have to be at the airport at 5:20 am? Mad props to Tim and Greta for volunteering to drive me to the airport!
It turns out Monday is a holiday in Western Australia, so I'll have Sunday and Monday to settle in. And then Tuesday is the school's swimming carnival. I don't know exactly what that will entail, but it sure sounds fun!
