I'm leaving Charlottesville this afternoon and heading home to prepare for my South Africa trip. I can't believe it's finally just around the corner...
I got upgraded to first class for my IAD-PDX leg, which is going to be sweet. I'm a little concerned about how I'll handle 26 hours of flight time in coach this weekend, but I'll survive it. I'll bring my colored pencils.
I saw my Charlottesville therapist, Dr. P, yesterday afternoon. I hadn't seen her since May, and I'd forgotten how great I always feel after our sessions. She got right to the root of all the things swirling in my head, gave me some good things to think about, and plenty of things to feel good about, too. It's nice to be able to come away from having the depths of your mind examined by a professional feeling like a good person.
I've been feeling pretty lethargic the past few days -- most likely because I haven't been getting very good sleep lately. I'll need to get lots of rest before South Africa, but I also want to be sure I'm getting in plenty of high intensity workouts so as not to lose momentum. I'm excited about swimming every day at our hostel. I still have to figure out what I'm packing. I know it's summer there, but I haven't really thought much about what I'll want to wear and just have with me for the trip. I wonder if there are showers in the lounges at Frankfurt...I do have a United Club/Star Alliance lounge membership, so at least we'll have a comfortable place to spend our layover while we're not running around Frankfurt.
