God only knows what I'd be without you
Mar. 20th, 2015 03:42 pmTwenty-Four hours from now I'll be in Costa Rica.
I have no idea what I'll be doing, but I'm hoping it's not a hell of a lot given I'll be waking up sometime around 4 tomorrow morning to be ready to head to the airport at 5.
WOOO!
NO SLEEP 'TIL...Costa Rica?
Yeah, sure. Let's go with that.
At the moment I'm doing that pre-travel freak out thing. Where I have a To Do list, but I'm so unfocused I'm not actually doing any of the list. Evidence of this can be found in the fact that "Post to Journal" is not an item in need of being done.
And yet here I am.
Sigh.
The good news is that aside from some last minute toiletries, I'm packed. Actually...I'm probably a bit overpacked. It's supposed to be 90+ degrees there with high humidity. I have no idea how to dress for that kind of weather, so I may have added far too many things to my bag to compensate.
Along with packing, I've got to teach tonight at the museum in an exhibit I've never taught in before. Strangely I think I might have a decent idea of what I can do to kill an hour's worth of time, but we'll see if it's effective. I really hate it when the kids I have range in age from First to Fifth grade.
I think tonight we're going to be talking about engineers, and where they draw their inspiration from. Apparently where I'm physically teaching there's currently an exhibit about making robotic bees. So I'll see about getting a picture of that creepy headless dog robot that MIT has, the one that can't be knocked over.
Okay, excitement is starting to overshadow anxiety. This is a good thing.
And...slightly more of a motivating thing. So yay for that.
