I am going to be on a plane in less than 48 hours. It's a crazy thing to think about. I have been packing bags, carefully wrapping items I do not want broken during the trip, preparing myself mentally for that looooong plane ride. Tonight I am going to a barbecue and Marie's house with some people from volleyball. I was really sad Thursday night at volleyball thinking about how I would not be playing with them again until January, so I am glad to have the chance to hang out with some of them a little longer. Tomorrow I am making a traditional Southern dinner for Sarah and Emmanuel: fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, corn, and apple cake. Then I have to go to bed to get up at like 4 am to take a shower before my early flight to Sydney. I fly out of Sydney at 11:45 am, land in Atlanta at 4:30pm, then should be at RDU by 7:05pm.
The following things that I have been missing will be back in my life until December 27th: my family, my NC friends, Bojangles, grilling on the back porch, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, Spicy Chicken sandwiches, UNC basketball, biscuits, cheap beer, Mexican food, Diet Dr. Pepper, driving, American bacon, DVR... God Bless America!
