Arrived in London!

Wednesday, Jan. 10

I made it!! Right now, I'm cold chillin' in my temporary London flat getting ready for another long recovery from jetlag. I spent yesterday fighting exhaustion with a quick stop at the office to pick up my mobile and laptop. Today was spent careening around London with a homesearch agent finding a flat. I put a hold on something that I hope will be very comfortable near Clapham Common (British word for "big park"). I really can't imagine moving more than once while I'm here, but you never know!

This experience doesn't seem real. I have crossed the threshold of a personal goal of mine and am staring at my future. This is all very scary and exciting for me.

More to come soon. Tomorrow I have reserved for a double decker bus ride! Can't wait!

I am so jealous that you are having/going to be having a fab experience! You are going to be talking like Madonna in no time. :)
