my first blog

although the catholic part of me feels guilty about the shameless vanity and self-promotional nature of a personal travel blog... the LEO inside feels like it's about time you all stopped thinking about yourselves so much and started thinking more about me, : )

I'm leaving on Sunday for the East, not Boston east, way easter... think Thailand and Bali east... Now, I have no idea how the blog will go or even if I'll ever post to it again. However, if you are ever having a bad day and just need a little pick me up, please don't check out my blog... because it will definitely only remind you that I am indeed having more fun than you : )

But seriously, this is a pivotal moment in my life, one in which I'm realizing a long time dream and saying yes to a new way of life which truly makes the world my home. And I would love to have  you all stay neighbors, at least electronically... and for the few of you who just can't wait 2 months to see me again or get that itch that can only be scratched by taking a spontaneous trip to the other side of the world, this blog will let you know where to find me... I'll be the one in the pirate hat : )
