Count Down:: t-6 days

and 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!
