Exactly one month from today I will be sitting on a plane... well, actually I will be getting off a plane in New York at 6am, wondering around JFK for 12 hours or so, making my way through security, customs, screening and whatever else is required before settling in for my second-in-a-row, overnight flight to Dubai. I've got to find room for a couple of good books!
Point being - Only one month until I leave. This both excites me and makes me break out in a panicky sweat. The good thing is that I am swamped at work right now, so my mind is occupied for the first half of the day. However, at night I start to think about all of the things I still need, how on Earth I'm going to fit all of my stuff into my backpack, and most of all the African animal planet programs my roommate seems obsessed with lately. Lions and crocodiles fighting over land near a river. Hyenas searching for food during the dry season. As if the mosquitoes weren't scary enough!! Mostly though, I'm just excited! I can't wait to pack my bag and get this adventure started!
You rock if you read this!

OH, I almost forgot the joke for Joann.
I'm sorry for this:
What has antlers and sucks blood?
A moose-quito!
