I've been laying here, trying to sleep, bacause I have to begin a 14+ hour workday at 1:00AM in Bellevue.
And I'm freaking out a little bit, panicking.
I have only 3 weeks left in America.
So little time and so, so much to do and so many people to say goodbye to.
I know I'm going to see Emeralds play with Whalebones tomorrow night, but I'm not sure about the rest of the weekend. Is this my last weekend in Seattle? Maybe I should go spend it in Longview at that party mansion that Chris Crusher rented for the weekend...
Then next week is already packed with stuff. No time to work, I gotta go to see Five Good Reasons and Furious Styles on Tuesday, I already have my tickets for Dragonforcce on Wednesday, and then I have some people I gotta spend at least a day with to say goodbye.
Then there's next weekend. Do I take the trip to Portland I've been planning with my buddy Jeremiah? Do I take the camping trip I've been planning with Jarret? Or is THAT my last weekend in Seattle, when I gotta party and
all that?
For certain, I'll need to be up north with my folks by Sunday the 17th. I have a lot of business to take care of with bills and taxes and getting all my stuff in storage and I've promised the parents a couple weeks of quality time and work around the house... but I'm already chipping away at that.
Because the weekend after will be my ACTUAL LAST WEEKEND IN THE U.S.A.! Should I spend it with the folks? Take one of those trips? Party with my friends in Bellingham, Big Lake, and Sedro-Woolley?
I've got to finish packing that Monday, I want to have my going away dinner on that Tuesday, and then it's hitting the road to San Francisco and flying out.
The end.
Anyway, shit, I'm a little freaked out about how little time I have left and how much I have to do. So, everyone who wanted to see me before I left better get on the ball now and help me make some of these decisions. The time is gonna go away faster than we realize.

Quality time with the folks
The folks have heard from a few of Nic's buddy's that it may be a year before he is home again. If you thnk Nic is freaked out can you imagine what his mom is? My goal has always been to grow my children up to be adventurous spirits. But now I'm rethinking this. I didn't think about how this could seperate us for long periods of time. So, please tell Nic to stay in touch with his mom. She needs to share the adventure even if from a distance.
