Rushing out of Venice

Maria is rambling on the couch and drinking red wine. Simultaneously, somewhere out there, Kat is boarding a plane in NYC. We leave from LAX in 4 hours. Did I mention we are rushing? Here in CA, Cynthia and Didrick, Everest veterans, are making us feel better about Mao bandits along the Khumbu route and the trials and tribulations of going the bathroom on the ground for a month.... Ouch. (Toilets, can I get a wut wut...miss you, for reals.)

But, despite it all...we are excited. Here we go.

Maria is still talking. She says "Maria finally gets out of the car after the neurosis (i.e. Jen too NY) driving-errands-hours and hey...we're going to Everest..." It just hit her. It will hit me at the airport, I guess. PS...is Maria going to refer to herself in the third person for the rest of the month? Ouch 2.

Don't forget to check in on my cats...their blog, updated by Renee, is at http://dirtylitterbox.blogspot.com.

See you on the other side!
