All My Bags Are Packed, I'm Ready To Go...

I cannot believe I board the plane tomorrow and start my journey to Australia. My nerves are pretty calm right now, but I'm sure tomorrow evening will be a different story. I think I am pretty much packed except for a few things that I will do right before I head for Memphis. I am also waiting on my two books for my online class to arrive. UPS says they are on track and should be here tomorrow. I pray they make it in time! But if they don't, that will just give me more room in my suitcases! For those of you wondering about the flight times, here they are:

Depart from Memphis: 6:40pm CST
Arrive in Los Angeles: 8:34pm (10:34pm CST)
Depart from Los Angeles: 10:35pm (12:35am CST)
Arrive in Sydney: 6:35am on 8/19/09 (3:35pm on 8/18/09 CST)
Depart from Sydney: 9:15am (6:15pm CST)
Arrive in Perth: 12:30pm on 8/19/09 (11:30pm on 8/18/09 CST)

To sum it up, it's going to be a LONG couple of days! I plan to load up on the good meds for the flight. I have recently felt okay about flying for a few hours over land. Lord, help me to fly over the Pacific Ocean for 15 hours!!!

Also, today has been 32 years since Elvis died. Wish I could've spent some time at Elvis Week in Memphis this week.
