Just a quick post... things are going really well... I'm leaving for Ethiopia on Monday, so I'm trying to get my last minute packing, shopping, and upcoming season preparing done. I can't wait to go home, but I don't want to go through the hassle of traveling a long time to get there. Yesterday I had dinner at Carter's house... the first semi-formal setting I have been in with his parents... and it was nice. I felt comfortable and at ease, and we sat at the table a long time after dinner just to continue our conversation. I must say that it makes a dating situation much easier when you have parental approval. It was a memorable day in one other fantastic way as well. I also went to Columbia during the day, where I participated in a day-long conference on how to treat, preserve, and manage audio-visual materials. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, even though I know that stating that makes me a complete nerd. Christmas lights are up at our house, and the little tree that my roommate Tracy brought back from VA creates a festive atmosphere every night.
Today is my last day at work for the year. This is my last weekend in the United States for 2005. When I come back, I will already have missed two classes. But I will have a nice suntan and a month's worth of relaxation.
