Crunch time
Well, now it's less than a week until I go.
In 6 days time I will be in San Francisco...probably cold, wet and tired.
I am massively overdue on my uni assignments and right now all I can think about is getting them done before I go. Work is suffering, my health is suffering. It's like a whole semester's worth of stress has been compounded into 7 days.
Now 6.
Almost all of my planning has been done. Trips are booked, transport and accommodation is booked. On the travel front, all seems to be going well.
All that remains to be done can't get done until after I leave anyway, and that's extending my departure date until around the 17th or 18th of Jan.
I'll be back in time for Australia Day, don't worry about that!!!!!
After over 2 months in the land of guns, fast food and shitty sitcoms it will be a much needed day of relaxing and being an Aussie among Aussie again. Not the token foreigner.
I have too much to do and not enough time to do it back here though, so I should stop crapping on.
My next entry will be in about 6 days time, hopefully! I think the pictures I take on my phone can be transferred straight to here, as well...which is convenient.

Check out the forecast, the activity is rising from quiet to moderate! Let's get to ACTIVE by the time I get there, yeah? Ok...good Aurora!
I *would* have put a cool YouTube here but stupid copyrights always getting in everybodies way.
Instead have a transcript.
Superintendent Chalmers: Aurora Borealis? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within your kitchen?!
Principal Skinner: Yes.
Superintendent Chalmers: May I see it?
Principal Skinner: No.
Agnes Skinner: Seymour! The house is on fire!
Principal Skinner: No, Mother, it's just the Northern Lights.
Gotta get my nose back to the grindstone now!!!
