Last few hours in Prague. In 13 hours I will be on a plane home, where I will live with my mom, have no money and no job and no Czech beer. This sucks. I will also have my dog and my friends and my car, and I hope these things ease the transition somewhat.
I spent my last day in Prague shopping, as this will be my last chance for cheap clothes that fit for a while. I stopped by St. John of Nepomuck's statue on the Charles Bridge, to re-inforce the promise that anyone who touches the bronze plaque at the base will return to Prague. I wish I could get some sort of timeline on that wish fulfillment, but so it goes.
Other things that are driving me insane - out dancing on Friday, I met an amazing guy. There was an actual instant "connection" of the type I have never had with anyone except my close friends. He has been here for two years. We are both leaving on Monday. He lives in Colorado. It is just part of the absolute cussedness of the universe that I met him now and not seven months ago. I randomly ran into him today, too, so it seems that our habitual stomping grounds are pretty much the same. Argh to that, says I.
Home tomorrow. The first thing I plan to do is hug my dog. The second thing I do will probably be sleep for a week. Then I will see Krystle on Wednesday, and begin applying for retail jobs. I am bracing for re-entry into normal life in 3... 2... 1...
