Has Today Come so Soon, Already?

In a few short hours I will board a plane that will take me further northwest than I've ever been before. While various travels have taken me to other corners of the country (Boothbay Harbor, ME, Miami, FL and Phoenix, AZ being a few of them) I have yet to explore the Pacific Northwest to its fullest extent. In fact, I will be about as far from Vancouver, BC as my parents' house is from OU right now. Eh, Oh. Go.

It seems like I would have a lot of things to say right now and thoughts rattling around in my mind, but I find myself surprisingly thoughtless and emotionally neutral at the moment. This is not how I expected to be, as I rarely am in an emotionless state, and stress and anxiety generally show themselves by pouring out my eyes in tears. Maybe I'm underwhelmed? Maybe I'm so overwhelmed that my body doesn't know how to respond? Maybe I'm so certain about this that there is no need for tears. It's probably one of those.

Next words will come to you from the rainy city. The city of the Space Needle and Nirvana and Starbucks. What an adventure.
