Whirlwind

I'll admit it.  The last week in Argentina I was counting the days until I left.  Not because I couldn't wait to get the hell out of there, but because I wanted on to the next adventure.  The last 7 days there seemed to crawl by.  Partially because I had wrapped all my projects at work and couldn't start any new ones without having to abandon them to my coworkers and partially because, one by one, everyone I had been hanging out with had up and left.  Oh well, c'est la vie.

But once I landed in Minneapolis, my world got turned upside down.  I didn't have enough time to catch up with everyone I wanted to, and for that, I'm sorry if I missed you.  I really tried, there was just too much to do to get ready for Asia and too much that went by the wayside while I was out of the country.  The few days I spent there flew by without enough time in the day to get everything done.

I ticked a few things off my list, including my first MN State Fair in a few years and drinks (men have drinks, Carrie Bradshaw has cocktails) at bars I haven't been to in a while.  And again, I find the time in Seattle is preciously short.  Barely enough time to do everything I need to do in order to be gone again for a month.  Fortunately all I really have left to do is write a few papers for summer classes (currently procrastinating) and put a bunch of crap in a backpack.  All that stands between me and a month in sunny, warmer climes are drinks with the guys, some last minute paperwork and shopping and a DMB concert at The Gorge (oh drat!).

Gonna be epic.  Stay tuned!


P.S.  I have been thinking about putting photos up on here.  Which should I do?  Go back and place them appropriately in previous entries?  Or do a photos-only entry?
