Is it obvious I never did the 20-something-backpack-around-Europe thing?

I am really stressed out about this upcoming trip. Every time I start to go into detail about why I end up erasing my words. I'm not organized and it's freaking me out. I organize. That's what I do best. It's what I get paid for. And I have no connecting train, plane or bus tickets. The town I am going to is so small it's not even in my guide book. Most of the info for places to stay don't have websites. I am don't know where to go after my few days in Lampeter. I'd like to spend some time by myself outdoors, but what to pick?? Where to stay? Guide books aren't actually all that helpful.

And then there's going to Edinburgh. Does Emily have housing yet? I don't even know. I'm thinking of trying couchsurfing.com in case Em's in a bind.

Maybe I should just stay an extra day in Lampeter and skip the rest of Wales and then just go straight to Edinburgh? There's an easy cheap flight there from Bristol, so that's nice. I don't really care to go to Cardiff, since I'm in a big city all the time. I was looking forward to the rural life for a change.

I suppose I should just wing it. It'll be good for me. But as each day passes I get a little more freaked out. I just don't want to need a vacation from my vacation when I get back you know? This fall is so busy and my summer wasn't relaxing in the slightest.

I feel like I'm being a big baby.

Is that the credit card address or the delivery address?
I know vendors don't send tickets overseas but that doesn't stop you from asking someone nicely to have tickets sent to their address instead.
Email Sarah and let her know you're having problems, if that fails, let me know.

Ha! At first glance, I thought, wow what a nice picture of him! And then I realized it was Giles! Clearly, Giles is your favorite Buffy character? I love Giles too.

*sigh* if only...

But then that would mean I'd have to cut off my beard and there's no way in hell that's going to happen ;)
