One Thing In Common
Most Saturdays, for the last couple of months, I've done a travel plans update. This will be the last one:
I leave on Friday, and I'm still not ready.
That is all.
...okay, maybe not all. And I did get a bunch of stuff taken care of. I got more suitable luggage (pun intended. Suitable? Suitcase? No? Damn.) I acquired a relatively cheap travel laptop so that, hopefully, I can make everyone here jealous by posting what I'm doing (I said this was the last plan update, not the last you'll hear of it). I checked with my mobile provider to ensure I'd still have connectivity over there (of course, I don't really trust them). I even made a few clothing purchases specifically for the trip.
Still, I have a few more things to do and less than a week to do them.
Then there's my utter lack of confidence in actually trying to speak French, combined with knowing that I'll be spending a few days in the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium. I suppose I could bully my way through like a stereotypical American tourist, but I'd really rather not.
Oh, well. "Beer" is pronounced pretty close to the same way in English, Dutch, and French, so I'm sure I'll be fine. |
