Less than 2 months and counting!

Today is January 18th, 2007 and it has finally hit me that I am leaving for Senegal in less than 2 months. The amount of packing and planning I still have to do is daunting, but exciting. I have prepared a 2 page packing list with a 10:1 ratio of gear/products:clothing. Now begins the task of checking off everything on that list.
My friends keep asking me if I'm nervous or anxious and I am honestly not. I am just ready to go and so excited to get there already. It's the waiting that's killing me. I guess this is a good time to practice "Patience and Flexibility" (the PC mantra which I anticipate repeating often to myself over the next 2 + years).
