Today's the day
I leave to meet my husband TODAY! I have been very anxious to see him after being apart for nearly 2 weeks. The flight departs in about 8 hours from Chicago, and I will arrive in Brussels on Monday around 1:30pm Central time - about 8:30pm Brussels time.
It really hit home that I was leaving last night when I said good-bye to my family for a whole year. I was not particularly nervous until then, and now I cannot get my stomach to settle. I will likely see some family members next May when they visit. Wow - this is the first time I have been apart from family for so long... I am already looking forward to their visit, and I am not even gone yet!!!
I hope everyone is doing well, and keep us in your thoughts. We will update as we can, and FYI - the keyboards are different in Belgium so bear with us;) We do not have internet in our new home.

Best of luck, you lucky bastards! We'll be thinking of you (and talking shit about Doug, in an endearing kind of way).

You'll be able to get free wireless internet access all over your new city with your laptop I'd say.

Kevin,
We had to pay 16.60 Euro per month for a cable connection -- our laptop doesn't have a wireless card (contrary to what we were told by the gelled-haired suburban Bestbuy Salesboy) and I don't think our area would pick up the signal anyway.
