A little worry. As usual.

Last night I finally purchased my ticket to Australia.

This is going to be an expensive trip. And I am really starting to feel the butterflies. Instead of going on this trip, I could be paying off a charge card. Or getting dental work done. Or using it as a down payment on a new vehicle. But I'm going to Australia. Eleven days that will be over quickly, and then I'll be back to the present, with only some pics to show for it.

I know, I know, travel is wonderful, broadens the mind, all that. I just feel really wierd that I'm doing this. I'm usually more practical than this.

But when will I have the chance to go to Australia again?

I just don't know. So I have to try now.

But that doesn't mean that I'm not going nuts. I am going nuts. Really. I'll owe in taxes (I always do every year, the fun of owning your own business) and I'll be broke, and I'll say Why did I take that trip.

*sigh*

I'm certain I'll feel very differently when I'm actually there, but right now, I'm a little freaked out.

EEEE. Oh wow. Australia would be a fantastic place to visit. Even though it takes a lot of money, and it leaves you paying off things, you may be grateful later for taking the chance when you had it, and having that experience before you get too bogged down in life and work to be able to do it.

I'm already in that frame of mind about the trip I took earlier this year, and the one I'm going to take in February. The price is worth it, to see places like that, IMHO.

I've really just got to bite the bullet and go. The price is steep, but if I'm creative with my money I can do it, so I'm going to. Yay!
