It's actually officially less than two weeks, but, who's really counting, right?
So, yeah... let me just start off by saying that I quite possibly have given myself another scar. I know I kind of talk about how I sometimes wish I had more scars since they make for interesting stories... well, next time you hear me say that make sure to remind me of this incident. Not only did it hurt... but, it quite possibly hurt more in the dignity department since I felt stupid after doing it. I guess I'll stop with avoiding the story:
Basically I have this tendency of climbing and walking around things that are not meant to be walked on... chairs, beds, counters, tables... that kind of stuff. Well, it was my Going away BBQ (will talk more about that later) and I was climbing over the table and walking around it when I was sitting with my friends. Though I shouldn't have done it, it made no difference since I wasn't really bothering anyone doing it. Well, on the other side of the shelter... basically same layout with tables. My mom was taking pictures of me with different family member groups (which I have just come to discover was pointless since they didn't come out... guess my new touch screen camera is a bit too much for her... but, I do love it a lot). Three of the tables were stuck together, so, instead of going around I decided to climb over it. There lies my mistake... I forgot that on the other side... we had moved the tables to avoid the sun... meaning it wasn't directly underneath the cemented, jagged-edged ceiling. The other side was, indeed, still directly beneath it at the perfect angle to cause me to jam my head on the jagged-edge and scrape/cut my head. I now have a two-inch cut and am hoping the Neosporin will help to reduce any possible scarring... because... yeah... a good inch away is my scar from back-flipping into pools. So, now I'll have two reminders on my head about things I shouldn't do.
Anyway, enough of that... the BBQ was fun. A lot of friend and family showed up... many of which I hadn't seen in a while. Most of whom that will basically be the last time I see even if my departure isn't for two weeks. I'm very grateful for this BBQ and that my mom went out of her way to do.
It also served as a wake-up call. I now know I have to buckle down and accomplish the rest of my list. I started on Friday since Thursday was my last day working (which... speaking of work... I'm going to miss my kid and his family a lot!) So, now I really have to get serious about doing stuff. The top two of the many things I have to do being getting my TB shots and getting my Visa. However, the Visa is not my fault since I'm still waiting for the company to send me the information for me to get it. Hopefully it comes this week... cause yeah... it's kind of important.
Anyway... seeing that it's late... I think I'll stop. I don't thing this post is very fluid... so, I'll end it at that. おやすめ！(oyasumi!) ---> Goodnight!

Only 2 weeks Away??? Good grief, time does fly when you're smashing everyday. I hope those people get with it and give you that visa soon. If not, you're going to have to put your foot down. But not too hard since it's now evident that you are accident prone :o)- Gabs
