TANGLED UP IN BLUE

The plane tickets are bought and it's happening.  Australia, down under--whatever else you can be called--I am coming.  I may not be prepared in the least but I promise it's for good reason.

Not only am I in the process of (trying to finish) editing a short movie before leaving, but a "slight" toilet situation arose at home which I have been dealing with for the last 4 days or so.. Swimming ankle deep in toilet water and a thousand dollars worth of damage later, things are looking up. The process included loud, hot dehumidifiers (which were impeccable timing with the ninety degree weather), ceilings being cut out, carpets ripped out, new paint jobs--the whole shebang.

Amidst all the chaos and sadness from saying my goodbyes, I can still manage to feel grateful that at the end of all this I am able to seize the opportunity that is Australia.  Say goodbye to toilet problems, the San Francisco job market, the boredom of Cupertino and hello to the unknown.
