Seriously itchy feet...

It's that time of year when I should be getting ready to move. I should be thinking about packing out, about moving on, about life in a new country. I am doing none of those things because I took another job here in DC that will keep me here for another year. I'm happy with the decision for lots of personal reasons, but I have to say I do find myself thinking a little wistfully about hopping on a plane and jetting off into the sunset. My sister rightfully points out that I am in no way prepared to pack out as I still have a lot to purge, but even so I just can't help envying friends who are getting ready to head out. Of course, I'll have the fun of bidding on a new job in October, but until then I'll have to cope with my itchy feet...
