Nokia, India, and Procrastination

I know i've made several posts in the not-too-distant past regarding Nokia. I've only had good things to say, for the most part. Yesterday marks a memorable day in IT history - Microsoft bought Nokia, or at least a sub-division of it. In the not-too-distant future marks a day also worth mentioning. Tomorrow I depart for India & Nepal. Should be fun, if I don't get eaten by infected mosquitos, poisonous spiders, venomous snakes, and mischievous monkeys. These are just the things i've been warned about from fellow Indian co-workers and friends. Who knows what uncharted things await me.
This India/Nepal vacation has got to be my worst-prepared trip in the history of Edward. I'm leaving tomorrow morning at dawn, and here I am with 2 loads of laundry and an empty suitcase. Procrastination sucks. Addendum: This past weekend i went on a hike to Olympic National Park's Hurricane Ridge. Pretty amazing trail. Went with a select few co-workers/friends. Saw some mountain beavers, chipmunks, and some fearless deers. I also learned that I suck at playing Bridge.
