Today was a grumpy sort of day. My fiance and I were sniping throughout the entire afternoon. My brother came over to say good-bye -- probably the last time I'll see him. Now we're getting ready to go out to dinner at one of our favorite restaurants in town -- it will be the last time we eat there.
I feel like I'm abandoning the people I love, yet I never see them anyway. In some ways, because living abroad will be an adventure -- thus blogging more -- could actually bring us closer. We have Skype so we are still just a phone call away without a lot of extra expense: I hope that's how it works.
There's still a sadness and some regret. Like maybe if I had lived my life in a different way, I wouldn't be moving half way around the world. But what would I be doing, instead? Somehow the sensible alternative is just too boring.
