Going Away Party

I would really like to just pick up with the present, with right now. But I don't think that's possible. If we started now, I would be in Sweden. Living in my nice room in Delphi, surrounded by Swedes, slowly and painfully picking up Swedish, and generally having a pretty great time. But, that would mean skipping a lot of stuff: I had an awesome going away party, packed up all my junk, flew to London, and traveled across Europe. I've also had some small adventures, both along the way and in Sweden.

So, let's go in chronological order and start at the start. Which I guess means that we need to begin with my going away party. There isn't much to say, except that it was awesome. Lots of my favorite people came. Meat was grilled, basketball and ping-pong were played, I took some photos, and the weather was beautiful.



Thanks so much to everybody who came! (And even to people like Eugene, who didn't come, and is a jerk.) I've had a great time at Cal these last two years, and the party was the perfect exclamation point.

(I put all the pictures up on flickr.)

PS Just kidding Eugene!
