When you think no one is watching...

This morning was perhaps one of the best I've had in quite some time. As much as I enjoy a bit of time to myself, the last few days being home alone have completely cured that need. After dropping Melissa off at school I was on my way home and became very carsick. I've been told you can't be carsick while driving, but apparently you can. Anyways, I stopped at a park to give myself a chance to undizzify. There was one other car in the parking lot, but after walking the loop, I appeared to be alone. I sat on a bridge over the creek for quite some time admiring the detail I could see thanks to my glasses. Up until the point that my bones ached from the cold I just sat there, avoiding the business taking place outside of my secluded bubble. Once I could take it no longer I finished my loop around the park. However, I couldn't just pass the baseball field. With a quick glance around I confirmed that I was still alone. Then, rejoicing over my American rights as a woman, I thankfully ran around the baseball diamond jumping exageratedly on each base. It was quite a display. I looked across the field with a contended look on my face....to be met by an amused look by my bystander. haha. oops. Whoever you were, I hope you are having a good day. And thank God I thought I was alone because that was just too much fun to pass up. I'm off to take a warm shower. :)

One week from tomorrow....

With a box, a backpack, and a half a dozen hugs I'll be back on a plane. I can't wait. Three years later than I would have previously liked I am finally off to Nepal. I don't know what to expect. I don't even know if I am going to be hot or cold there, but I know it's an experience I can't wait to start. Oops, I lied. I know to expect one thing. The language is quite difficult. I was hoping to make a small dent in it before I got there. It's not that I need to learn it. We have translators and all that jazz. But, why not learn another? Well here's a good reason....This supposedly means I love you:

ma timilai maya garchu

try saying that 5 times fast without a smile. :)
