East Coast Bound

Well, I've been talking about it for a while - who would have honestly thought it would have taken me over a year to make it back East.

That's right - I'm returning home...well, not my real home, but one of my many homes - Ithaca, New York.

I'm really excited to go back. The main reason being one of my best friends from my time at school is still there as a grad student and the second reason being that it is Cortaca weekend. It's the big rival football game between Ithaca and Suny Cortland, so we'll have a good time going to it.

It also helps that while I am there for 4 days - my mom is coming up for one of them. It'll be the longest I've gone since seeing her - by a lot. It'll be a short, but well worth, and well deserved visit with her. Plus we'll squeeze in a meal at Joe's :)

Another good addition is that my entire house from senior year is coming up during the weekend to visit me as well, driving in from everywhere from Rochester, NYC, and even DC. It's going to be so great seeing everyone. Hell, hopefully I'll even get to catch up with my old tennis coach while on campus.

To be honest though, I am a little scared. I haven't travelled alone in 3 years and I havn't been on a plane in almost that long. Don't get me wrong, I love planes and I love traveling, but since it's been so long, I feel like I'm going to forget something important.

Oh well, if I do, it's part of the adventure right? I'll have my credit cards and ID - so I could make it anywhere if need be.

But on that note - I need to go to bed and make sure I'm well rested for tomorrow. I have a red-eye to Newark then up to Ithaca for 9:26am.

Wahoo!

Oh right - this also means I'll be on a little bit of a hiatus until next week.

Catch you then!
