We’re about to be Back… but I’m not yet sure if we’re ‘Better Than Ever’ … only time will tell.

It’s 2 o’clock in the morning… in 6 hours Gretchen and I will be reunited for the first time since May 18.  Unfortunately, our counterpart Alpha the fish will not be joining us on the upcoming adventure, as he went belly up a few days ago.  He was with Gretchen at the time of his passing, and according the text messages she sent me, his body was ‘donated to science’ (aka, she dissected him… because she is a future vet and that’s apparently what future vets do.)

In other news, I am not finished packing for our trip, and I am leaving in 3 hours.  (This should come as a surprise to no one.)  However, I am SO PUMPED to go help Gretch move into her new home for the next few years while she is vet school, and I’m even more excited to see many, many friends in the process.  I’m sure the next 10 days will be filled with many blog worthy moments so we will do our best to keep you informed.

Alright… time for bed.  The packing will get finished in the morning.  Or it won’t.  Either way I get to see my best friend in 6 hours, and I can’t wait!
