Tomorrow I will receive my tire/wheel package and get them on... Wednesday I will clean my drop-in... Sunday will be an oil change... Monday-Tuesday will be endless harranguing of Leif regarding my birthday present (which I suspect is for Ollie)...

THURSDAY I WILL LEAVE!!!

Are you sure he's not calling you crazy because you're keeping him up at night, since you can't sleep?

I leave Friday at the butt-crack of dawn and will be on the Dragon by 2 PM that day.

Today doesn't count because my work day is just about over right now.

That just leaves Thursday.

ONE DAY TO GO!!!
