Ka-ching!

I bought my airplane ticket today, thus officially marking The Biggest Credit Card Purchase I've ever made: $925. That's actually a relatively low price, but still, it's gonna feel like a punch to my stomach when I see that on my credit card statement. Especially after I had to fork out nearly $200 just to get my US passport today.
Now I have an official departure date: August 27. It's scary and exciting all at the same time.
