Here it is, ten days from departure, and I'm watching Swedes build an ice hotel on the Science Channel. It's really very interesting. But not what I should be doing.
My list of feats to accomplish is actually fairly short. Some bills to pay. A car to drop off. A few loose ends to be tied up. All told, not a huge mound of stuff. I got a huge amount of shopping done this weekend, with Jen's help. I've ordered a few things on the internets that (hopefully) will arrive soon... Excitement is helping me along, but I'm beginning to get nervous. Even a little overwhelmed, I think. Just need to take a deep breath and get it sorted.
I haven't even really thought about the situation I'll be in when I arrive. When I met with Uchida-san on Friday, he told me that I'd be flying into Osaka. I know I'll be teaching English to kids. I know I'll have a place to live, and money to buy food. And that's about as far as I've gone in my head. Of course I've thought about being away from everyone I know, most especially Jennifer. But I'm not dwelling on that, because I need to stay focused.
Okay. Time to get stuff done.
