Conversation with my brother who lives in California last month:
Jay: I am so excited that you are going on this trip! How long will you be gone?
Carrie: Over five weeks.
Jay: So you mean I won’t see you when I fly in for Thanksgiving?
Carrie: Nope
Jay: What about Christmas?
Carrie: Nope
Jay: When will I get to see you?!
Carrie: Don’t know
Jay: What about the wedding?!
Okay Stinks, Mr. Sweetheart-and-a-half. I am going to the wedding. I don’t know how it happened, but I am all packed for my trip, all ready for my finals, and somebody broke up with their girl-friend two weeks before the big wedding day- opening up a seat for me. I am flying to San Francisco this weekend—five days before I leave for Beijing…let the games begin!
