Prepartum Depression

Alright, so I'm leaving for Australia. In two days. Oh mai gah, I'm so excited. Actually, I've been excited for days. Weeks. Months. I've been excited since Jono and I came up with the idea. More excited when I bought the ticket in January. I think I'm growing ulcers from overexcitement. I hope I don't pass out on the plane.
Oh no. The plane ride. That's going to be horrible. As in 25 hours of Hannibal the Cannibal, Chewy bars, 3OH!3, Howl's Moving Castle, and attempted feverish sleep. And experimenting with my new camera. Maybe I'll make friends with the people next to me. Hopefully I don't drool on his or her arm this time. (That was embarrassing...).
I'm worried because I don't know what to bring Jono's family. Jono said maple syrup but for sommmme reason I'm not sure if he asked his parents. I feel like they actually might have maple syrup in Australia, too. And they don't make little bottles so it might be hard to transport across the Pacific. You know how security has been since 9/11. Well anyways, I'll try my best.
Alright, now to explain the title of this entry.
I get really depressed and hungry before I travel. Every time. The whole entire week before I leave, I start eating and eating, and being tired, and wanting to be left ALONE or left to sleep or left to fester and waste away in my bed. And by waste away I mean BALLOON and gain about three thousand pounds. I don't know why. I can't explain it. But I deal. I've asked Danny to tell me to stop eating if I start getting out the can opener and eating things straight out of the can like a couple weeks ago. So far he's been pretty good about it. I haven't had seven servings of corn or unflavored tuna yet.
Just bought the last of the stuff I need today. I GOT A NEW CAMERA!! It's my favorite color: hoorah! And I got a passport/money/ID/ticket carrier and skin stuff and other stuff. Shopping was decent today. And the lady at the bank was nice to me. I don't like the girls that work at the Origins outlet at Dillard's. They're much nicer at the store by Lush.

Alright. I'm going to end this now. I don't have anything profound to say.
I'll miss everyone!!

Happy Independence Day tomorrow!!

Love,
Janet
