Check One

I made it back! So after a week of stress (hidden behind my smile - of "I got this shit figured out...sort of") I finally have the job. I mean, I really had the job while I was there, but I didn't actually receive the contract. So I freaked out a little for about 5 days, then I was done. It is settled...I can move on now - to more important things like.... how I have been sick since I have returned, or how I am moving in basically 5 weeks and avoiding this subject with all costs right now, or shots - yeah, I have to get shots!

There are a ton of things I need to figure out and plan and pay for before I make my way....traveler's insurance for instance. I really don't want to think about that one...moving on. How about I talk about what has really been on my mind - how am I going to get my mountain bike there????? My dad seems to think that we can take it on the plane with our luggage...hmmm, makes sense...I hope he is correct!

I need to get shots before I leave - yep, don't want to think about that one yet either. Did you know how expensive shots are? ...because I had no idea!! And insurance doesn't cover any of it!!! Yikes.

Moving on - I have been sick since I have been home, this sucks. I was reading a website today (and not wikipedia, or webmd) a real website that I was recommended by a secretary at a doctors office - that is legit right? Anyway, I was reading about getting sick while traveling...and yep, it appears that I caught that bug and don't want to let go! How can this happen? I mean, I have been to Guate before, and Mexico numerous times...I can't even begin to count the places I have traveled and the number of times - but one of the most important travels - I get sick? So the website was suggesting to seek medical attention after 72 hours...well guess what, that was like 6 days ago - oops! I have an appointment on Monday, I should be fine by then I hope! ha
