I know exactly what you mean on all counts. Especially the part about this whole abroad thing not seeming real. I'm in Prague right now. I've been here three days. As I was landing, it finally hit me. I looked out at the city and thought to myself: "holy crap, this is home for four months."

I felt great coming back into the city. I feel right at home from the time I drive out the other side of the tunnel and see the bridge in front of me. I think I've made a home bubble around the north bay, though. When I went home for the summer, it didn't feel weird at all. If I were anywhere else, I would feel awkward. All I know is that I ain't moving to the east coast.

i would have to give a big "amen" to the feeling that (the proverbial) you don't belong anywhere. I just feel like sometimes home is where ever I'm not. Once I get where I'm going, it's not right anymore.

Sorry I didn't call to wish you Bon Voyage yesterday morning, but considering what time it was here when you left, I think we're probably both better off without an ordeal like that. ;)

Molto amore e buona fortuna!
