Not long at all now

In less than eight hours I'll be boarding a flight for Dublin, Ireland.  It's going to be a three month stay and if things go right it will be the precursor to a new life.  This blog is going to be about my experiences, my thoughts, my struggles and triumphs.  I hope it will make you laugh, and cry, and above all inspire you to chase your dreams like I've decided to chase mine.  The only easy part about this will be getting on that plane, everything up to now has been an odyssey and everything after that will be a battle of my will against whatever forces in the universe conspire against man.  The human spirit is stronger though and I set out to prove that.  I thank all of my friends who have supported me at any point in my life and I look forward to the new faces and places I'll endear myself to.  Until next time, Slan.
