Less Than A Week (I hope)

I bought my new plane tickets on Friday morning, and if all goes according to plan (that is, if I receive my visa in time), I will be taking off for Moscow this Friday afternoon, September 25, at 4:35 PM. That will put me in Moscow at 10:45 AM on Saturday morning, and I'll hit the ground running from there--except for the week-long return in mid-October.

The main point is: I CAN'T WAIT TO GO!
