Pre-Departure Nonsense

So... the Peace Corps should be freaking elated with my dental work. I spent the past two days with half of my face numb to replace my two existing fillings. Other than that, Texas has been very sedate. And I'm liking it. I get to spend a month tubing on the Guadalupe with old friends and drinking Dad's pinot. I see no problem with this so far. Mom and Dad leave on the 29th, and that gives me two weeks to myself and a bunch of reckless boys. I hope I don't break anything. I don't really know anything about staging yet, but I'm assuming they'll tell me in the near future. On that note, a glass of wine is calling.
