Eighty pounds of luggage and 5 trips to R.E.I. later...

I'm heading to Philadelphia tomorrow for "staging," which sounds like a six-hour orgy of paperwork and vaccinations. Then we'll check out nice and early (2:30am) to catch a flight from JFK to Malawi on Saturday morning. This may be the last you hear from your LooBird for a while; during pre-service training, I won't have access to phone or email. So, for the time being, and til late November, just remember that no news is good news.

But wait! I will still be able to receive and send snail mail, which, though super slow, is better than no mail at all. So, please do keep in touch and let me know how things are going because I will be missing you all very much. In a related note, I am very grateful for all the sweet goodbye gestures, and Mas dinners, and homemade dinners, and taco runs, and baseball games, and trips to the park, and general good times I've shared with the people I love this month.

Au revoir,
Loo
