Last Day at Home

Well it's almost here. Tonight is the last night I quasi sleep in my own bed. (The real one is in storage somewhere. The joy of being a vagabond.) I'm spending the night in Lexington tomorrow before I wake up bright and early in the morning and fly to San Fransisco at 7am. Well I guess its time to get everyone up to date.

In mid April, I was finally medically cleared. But that's not the end of the vaccinations. Once I get there, I will be given 5 more series of shots (Hep A, Hep B, Rabies, Typhoid, and Meningococcal) if I haven't received them already.

Staging for Mongolia will take place on May 29 in San Fransisco at the Parc 55 hotel. It will be an evening full of ice breakers and expectations. We will then leave the hotel at 5am the following morning for a flight that leaves at 11am... At least we get a 5 hr layover at Incheon International Airport in Seoul, South Korea before we get to Ulaanbaatar.

So once upon a time, I said I would post my resume and aspiration statements (what I had to send in once I accepted the invitation to join the Peace Corps). You'll find them after the break.
