Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow

“It’s a dangerous business, going out of your door. You step into the Road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to.”

— Bilbo Baggins

Tomorrow, 24 hours from now, United Airlines flight 951 will take off at Brussels Airport, Zaventem. We, the GSE team, will be on that plane, sitting on row 35. Our final destination, after a pit stop in Washington Dulles: Raleigh Durham, North Carolina.

The waiting and counting down is almost over: only one more day to go.

Maybe “ironic” isn’t the right word, but I find it notable that, now that we’re finally leaving the “country” that has been without a government since Monday, April 26, 2010, it now looks like we’re possibly heading for another country without a government.

I’m really looking forward to tomorrow, and to the coming month.
