I'm going to be in England in less than a month. One month from right this minute I will be there, in London. Living the dream.

Am I excited? Oh, yes. Yes I am.

Aside from the fact I'm Meeting A Goal* I'm going to be there with Dave The Boyfriend, and he's really wonderful. We're going to have a good time. Having the whole Anglophile thing in common its...well...it's really great. It makes us 'us'. Also he's been there many times, so he knows how to get places and do things without looking too touristy.

We're going to go to the British Museum, and we're doing a horribly touristy 'dinner cruise' on Saturday night, but other than that, we don't have fixed plans. I'm sort of hoping to go to Baker Street - there's a shop there, apparently and I'm hoping to buy tacky Sherlock souvenirs for some friends.

I want to try to get to the Doctor Who experience if we have time.

Have I mentioned I'm excited?

*Elsewhere on this blog, I mentioned that I wanted to get to England by the time I was forty. I'm just 4 years late. Not terribly bad.
