In a very few days, I’m heading off on a grand adventure. Alone. To a foreign country. My emotions right now run the gamut from pure excitement to abject terror.
Mostly excitement, though. You see, I’m going to England to hang out with a couple of dear friends I’ve never actually met. Via FaceTime, the three of us have assured one another that we’re not axe murderers, and honestly, I’m positive they aren’t.
We’re keeping our plans fluid because I know how annoying I can be and they might want me gone after day one. I can also be charming, though, and in that case, they might want me to stay forever. In either event, I’ve booked a few days at a hotel in London and a return trip because at some point Studly Doright is going to miss me.
I leave on Tuesday and would love some good travel vibes—luggage that makes the trip with me, smooth flights, pleasant seat mates, on time arrivals, etc. Oh, just for the record, I’m leaving my axe at home.
Peace, people!

So, my Dear, you are a leader. Can hardly wait to hear about the new adventures awaiting you across the pond.

How exciting!!!! Have a wonderfully safe trip! I’m going on a limb and guessing here, but if you are meeting up with Will and Kate, do tell them I said hello.

We’ve had some fun discussion re: jumpers and trainers and on the proper pronunciation of “route”.
