So in about 27 hours, I'll be leavin' on a jet plane to Los Angeles. The fires seem to have taken a turn for the better (thanks to the weather, which took a turn for the colder). I'm excited, nervous, worried and ready. All I have to do is pack (which, I'll hopefully do today). I was actually thinking about cancelling the trip (at first, because of the fires, then because of the cost of it all).

And yes, I just realized that I overuse parenthesis.

Anyway, I'll be meeting up with my friend soon after I land in LAX and head to my hotel in Redondo Beach. Maybe this will be my first attempt at travel blogging. I tried to do some when I was in Massachusetts, but the computer at the house where my family and I were staying wasn't too cooperative. I'm still looking for any more suggestions for stuff to do; Nikki's been a big help, but I can never have too many ideas.

So I got something interesting in my e-mail inbox this morning. Suzanne sent me an e-card. It was kind of a cutesy thing, followed by this message from her:

Hey you. How are ya? So, it's been awhile since I last wrote to you. I just felt like sending this card to you today.

I was hoping that we could take little bity steps to heal our relationship and become friends again.

Let me know what you think.

It's been since September since we last spoke. I figured it'd be soon that she'd try to write/call. I'm not sure of what I should do, but I know I won't do anything until after the big trip.

Speaking of which, I need to start getting ready. I'll try to work in one more post before I leave. Good-bye and good luck.
