Count Down:: t-6 daysand then, AU. no doubt i am uber excited. but i believe the excitement will only last a couple of days at best. then, it'll be taken over by the overwhelming need for completing those innumerable jobs i have to 'take care of', most of them non-intelligent:: packeing, tickets, bank accounts, traveler's checks, documents, CDs, saying goodbyes, etc etc etc. no time to think or to be excited. its happened to me before. its going to happen to me again. but there is time for that. it'll come. right now, my thoughts are revolving around seeing kangaroos and playing boomerangs!
JGD:: first postapparently, i am into the blogging world now. with many past experiences and opinionated impressions, i knew i would be opening this door. just didn't think i'd do it today. i am swooshing off to australia by the end of this month. and, i can't wait long to share my excitement. i guess you can kinda notice it in my blog name. no, i don't smoke, and no, i don't like yaks. it's just an afterthought from my aussie slang lookup earlier today. it so happens that "smoko", at one time refered to "a smoke break", and eventually ended up meaning "a tea break from work"; and "yak" refers to "chatter". and thats what a blog is for me: a chat during a tea break.hopefully, i can keep this up: mention my musing more often. lets see how it goes.
