Because once just isn’t enough

Big things are happening. My parents moved today; I no longer have a residence in Deerfield Beach, the city I’ve lived in my whole life. (Well, I haven’t really lived there for a while since I’m in college, but now it’s official.) They’ll be moving in to our new house on Monday (I think) and in the meantime are staying with my grandparents.

But here in this little college apartment I’ve come to call home, big things are happening too. Although I’m buried under a pile of homework and work and housework (or at least the threat of impending housework), I’d like to stick my head in briefly to say: Kate is coming back.

I met her last summer when I was in Europe, and in January, she paid me a visit that I detailed in 5 posts: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

She’ll be leaving Russia this weekend and will spend a week meandering from Miami to Gainesville. Then she’ll be meeting up with me, and we’ll spend a few days in St. Augustine and Jacksonville. Then we’ll be back in the Gainesville area, where we’ll visit my parents at the new house. After that, we hope to make it down to Key West for a few days, and then Kate will have to be in Miami to catch her flight home.

It’s incredibly kind of her to travel halfway around the world twice in less than a year to visit me, and I’ll make sure she enjoys her visit.

In the meantime, I have all this work to catch up on.
