I'm happy to be with my family in Texas this Christmas. The time has passed so quickly; I'll be leaving for Japan in just 4 days. I'm excited to be going on a new adventure, but still a little sad to be leaving Texas and my family.
Wishing all of you a happy holiday.

Planned Itinerary

Japan!
So Tuesday, I came home and G asked me if I wanted to go to Japan.
"Yes!!! Of course, yes!!"
He works for a Japanese company and it's amazing that he has this opportunity. Basically, he'll fly over first and then I'll join him (after the work part is over with).
"We'll be leaving in 2 weeks."
This whole thing is last minute (our tickets were purchased less than a week ago). We are scrambling to make plans and come up with an itinerary.
Even crazier, last Thursday I hopped on a plane and flew from San Francisco to Austin to visit family. This Texas trip had been planned for 3 months, but because the times overlap, I am now flying directly from Austin to Tokyo (well, not directly - I have a layover in L.A.). I had already packed for my Texas trip, but because of the last minute change of plans, I had to repack, fitting everything I would need for both Texas and Japan in the same carry-on sized bag. I'm quite proud that in about 24 hours I went from initially finding out to having my whole bag packed. And I wasn't even able to buy my Japan ticket until after I was in Texas (G and I had to wait for verification from his company that his ticket had been purchased).
So now we are trying to figure out what we want to see and do and where we want to go. And all of this is long distance - he's still in the San Francisco area.
In the near future I will post our tentative itinerary.
