Panic Has Set In
I went to my last military ball last night, at least for a while. It was not one of the more entertaining galas I've been to, but there were a few highlights. At the top of the list was Jessica's realization she had neglected to apply deodorant that evening. While I'm happy to report that there was no overwhelming odor, it was fun to wonder if that moment might happen.
Today was spent watching the Olympics (I could watch the mens swimming all day--yum, yum, yum), finishing The Lovely Bones (very, very good), and taking a long nap in preparation for tonight's new Migration Board adventure. At precisely 3 a.m., I will be calling again to find out if my residence permit has been approved. If it hasn't been mailed out yet, I'm going to have to change my flight to a later date. Fingers crossed, people!
Jessica left for school tonight, so I won't see her again until November--assuming I leave on Wednesday, of course. My family has basically given up on my Wednesday departure date, even going so far as to schedule me for babysitting on Thursday and Friday. Where's the faith?
That's all for now--back to the Olympics.
