signed, sealed, delirious

Oh, there is no getting out of it now.

Today was ‘pay or forget it’ day. With the increase in fuel costs and taxes and BLAH BLAH BLAH, it’s really a matter of getting onto it and booking that ticket.

Which I have done.

It’s done. I’m leaving at 5:45AM on the 8th of June. What day is that even??

Ah, a Sunday. Looks like I’ll be missing church that day.

5:45AM to Sydney to Los Angeles to Chicago and I arrive at 8:15PM… on the same day.

The longest day of my life, I swear.

There is only ONE YEAR LEFT on my ticket, so I might just make it back for State Youth Games ‘09.

I imagine the whole trip being business class and myself not being so crabby and tired when I arrive, but alas, that’s not likely to happen (‘why kerryn, you’re entire schedule has been bumped up to business class due to unforeseen circumstances’).

That’s 21.5 hours of actual flying, plus alot more of transit… I would work it out but time differences of that magnitude scare me. It’s like a whole day has arrived unannounced, like the second-cousin you never invited but came anyway. ‘What is he doing here?’

So, it’s on. I picked up my passport today complete with my US Visa valid for 5 years. So to my beloved americans: Nicole, Ashley and Monica, I hope you like me, I might be back!

Until the next big story,

kezza the peace lover.
