Wedding bells are ringing louder and I’m getting nervous/very excited. 5 years ago, I never thought I’d be getting married simply because I was so used to being alone. Now I’m looking forward to the challenges of marriage. I think it’s going to be a learning experience, as all great things in life are. Devoting my life to one person sounds pretty romantic and inspiring.

Marie is in Wausau right now with Liz, and I’ll be arriving there tomorrow evening. I’ve got a few things to tend to tonight, but nothing too major. I’m just excited I get to watch the Simpsons during dinner. Going two weeks without made me realize how much I still like that show, even in reruns.

Only thing in the next two weeks that I’m not looking forward to (other than coming home) is the drive to Chicago. It’s a five hour trip from Wausau to the airport, and that depends on traffic. Eek. I don’t mind driving, but I’m just not used to being in Chicago and have this image of getting lost or something. Note to self – be less of a weenie.

I’m ready for the heat to break too. Tired of being sticky. Ick. I don’t like my dependence on air conditioning but it’s tough when it’s so hot outside. St. Lucia forecast is mid 80s and thunderstorms the ENTIRE time we’re supposed to be there. Yeah, we’ll see about that.

I’m too frazzled to post anything intelligent, so I’ll just end it now. Probably a brief posting tomorrow, but if not, I’ll see you mid August when I return. I promise to fill you in on most of my excellent adventures.
