Bonafide Sponge

So tomorrow I head to the embassy to get my diplomatic visa and my official badge to get me into the embassy. My life is so cool. Though, I must give props where props is due.

My travels to Asia - because my dad wanted a traveling companion and had plenty of frequent flyer miles

My SIP (Slightly Important Person) status in the DR - clutching on to my sister's coattails.

I'm fully aware that a lot of the amazing stuff in my life can actually mostly be contributed to the fact that I have an amazing family. And one that fully supports my Tra-la-la lifestyle. I know that they all hope that someday soon I'll find my true calling and actually have somewhat of a safety net in place for the rest of my life, but they also realize that I'm not going to resign myself to a job or lifestyle that I hate just so that I can have silly things like money and security.

I am one of the luckiest people in the world.

And tomorrow I'll have the diplomatic visa to prove it. (Tonight I have the belly full of Dave Pernal cooking and ginger beer to prove it!)
