I'm not invincible?

I've been sick for the past two days. I mean, completely beat down, it hurts to move and I'm exhausted walking upstairs sick. Gross. I hated that. Hopefully that's the last time for awhile, it was not pleasant.

Fortunately, that gave me time to do a lot of things that wasted time... like watch all of the Lord of The Rings movies. I tried wasting time reading, but my sinuses made my eyes all blurry. TMI, maybe, but if you're reading this you probably actually want those details.

I've also started packing. Here's what I've decided to do. I have everything I want to take inside the luggage coming with me. I will remove one item every day from now until Friday, and bam! It should be done. It might be the most brilliant/stupid idea I've ever had. To be fair, I've had a rough couple days and I can't be held entirely accountable for any great ideas I came up with.

Hooray for Diphenhydramine hydrochloride!

Ok, but seriously, I've been thinking a lot about this blog, and a lot of people tend to start new blogs when they start a new adventure. This is partially to keep the adventure and person's personal life separate, and I understand that. But I can't help but think that it's sort of unnatural to start a new journal/website just because something "exciting" is happening. I mean, my life will seem pretty normal no matter where I am, if I'm there for long enough. So it's official. I'll be writing here about K-stan when I get the chance. I have a friend who once told me that she doesn't want a fancy journal, because she doesn't feel like her life has anything exciting enough to put in it...

Here's to every day being exciting enough for a fancy journal, no matter where you are.
