While I'm waiting I'm stuck in limbo, and what else to do than try to make time pass? So I do! Last night I went to see No Distance Left to Run, and seriously, boys, girls, ladies, gentlemen, watch this! I don't care if you're a Blur-fan or not, you need to let this be part of your musical and visceral experience. Throughout the 90 minutes or however long it lasted, I went to times of anger, goosebumps, many tears and such love for those four Essex boys. What a great documentary.

Then I got home and realized, once again, that I have no furniture left in my otherwise great apartment that I am somewhat reluctant to leave. Today I will do another kind of packing, though. Oh yes, the bag will be packed today. That's just another step closer to what will most likely be one of the greatest experiences of my life. Hey, isn't that strange though? Being able to say beforehand when something amazing will happen?

Anyway, got home, couldn't sleep so I decided to listen to Bikini Kill while chewing the last of the very weird tennis chewing gum that I won at a lottery two weeks ago. Yeah, that's what I do in my time off. Okay, so I still couldn't sleep, so I got a little annoyed with the restlessness that comes along those anticipated travels. I have a friend who has also spent a great deal of her life travelling and she says that anticipation is ones best friend before hitting the road. I say it's a friend I could live without. Like one of those friend where you want to know them, but you can never really be bothered to actually meet up? Yeah, anticipation is one of those.

I also have another friend who wants to go to Argentina with me and a step-dad who's dreaming of India. Plus, another friend who longs for Tokyo. If you guys want to sponsor me and all these trips, just let me know and we'll work something out. Sure thing.

Until then, - in the words of David Grohl - I'll stick around.
