I can always tell when I am excited about something, because I keep thinking about the stupidest ways to count down my departure. Not only that but the number of days become muddled. If you had asked me two weeks ago, I would have told you a definite 21 days til I leave. However, now that the time is much shorter, I begin counting down to the day before, or even two days before because the way I figure it, my adventure really begins with orientation which is the day before my flight leaves, or I could convince myself that it begins two days before because thats the last day I have anything planned that I need to do. Yes, it's irrational, but hey, it is what it is. Having all that said, three is the atomic number for lithium, notes in a tritone, strikes before you're out, number of little pigs, wisemen, blind mice, and Musketeers, it is the number of children Celine Dion has, and the number of Number 1 albums Carrie Underwood has had so far. Oh, and its the number of days til I leave for Jerusalem. Yes, its coming very soon, and I can hardly stand it. It's at this point that I begin to realize when i've done something for the last time, for example... I have experienced my last trip to cafe rio made my last drive to SLC until I leave to the airport, served my last function at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, filled up on gas for the last time, tomorrow will be my last free Saturday and this coming Sunday will be the last one I worship the Sabbath on. I can't believe that this time next week I will have been in Jerusalem for a whole two days!!! Crazy. Keep following, hopefully the posts will be more exciting in the near future, and don't call me Shirley!
