Quick Update

Well, the big day is almost here. I leave a week from tomorrow from Chicago on my way to Moscow and to Vladimir beyond. I have been busy cleaning and storing my stuff, figureing out what to pack, and generally just doing all of the little stuff that has to be done. My Russian visa showed up this morning, which is a big load off my shoulders. I am trying to enjoy the last few by going to a ball game, visiting family, and spending some time in Chicago with my sis. The time will be gone before I know it!
