up up and away

I'm going to Germany. Today. I leave in about half an hour, actually. And I'm all packed and ready to go.

Not too terribly long ago, I was really not ready to head back to the country that left me so broken. But I've put myself back together, and of course it was never the country's fault. :-) And now I am not only ready to go back, but eager. Eager to see friends, and eat doener, and see the sights of the city I used to call home. And eager to fly to Cyprus and have all new adventures, too.

So, yeah. Well-deserved and long-awaited vacation. Maybe I'll blog about it!

In other news, I've been trying to make a decision about a possible opportunity. I think I've decided to let this one pass, tempting as it may have been. The Spirit (or something) was nudging for a while, but the nudging stopped, and reality has its own (loud) opinion. So I think I will recommit to Chicago, try to make my life deeper and more meaningful here, rather than searching for that elsewhere. Yep, grown-up-hood strikes again.

I didn't know you were blogging again! :) I'm curious--what was the opportunity you didn't jump on?

I'm not blogging much,actually. :-) Just a post every now and again.

It was a job opportunity, really far away, and I would have had to pick up and move and start over again. With all the chaos at work, it seemed like not such a bad option. However, there's almost no way I could have sold the condo. :-)
