Thankfully, I have many homes.
In order to stop just bumming around and missing Wheaton, I'm looking to the future. In fact, the day after I got back I started working on all my Fulbright medical forms. I tried to tackle them in Massachusetts and failed miserably...three different appointments for a physical and they all fell through. The universe was sending me a message to wait until I got back to New Orleans. Thankfully, everything is working out a lot better here, although I'm going through more medical tests than I ever thought could possibly be necessary.
I'm also making plans for the summer - like Bonnaroo! I haven't been to a music festival since I left New Orleans in '08, which is, honestly, very sad. So I'll be driving up to Tennessee (or paying for a ride there using zimride) to see Bon Iver, the Kooks, Rodrigo y Gabriela and so many more. Then in July, it's off to France, followed by San Francisco, and, finally, Taiwan in August.
In the meantime, I also need to figure out what I'll be doing after the Fulbright in Taiwan. Some of the paperwork I have to fill out demands to know around when I'd like to fly back to the US from Taiwan. Umm, no idea really. I don't know yet if I'll need to be back earlier (early June?) or later (late July?) for whatever I'll be doing the year after that. What will I be doing? I have some ideas (I always do) but I'll get back to that later...
