checking out...

You know that frenzy that you feel when you are checking out of a hotel room and you frantically run around checking under the bed and in the drawers and under the bathroom sink to make sure that you don't leave something behind? That's exactly how I feel about leaving miami. i'm set to move from the city that i have not had the best relationship with and i feel myself gearing up for it with the anxiety and fear that i will leave with something undone. so in order to rationalize my fears here is a list of things that i must do before leaving:
1. visit the everglades. it's only one of the largest refuges of untouched land in the US and is rumored to be drained and covered over by concrete if miami gets any freakin' bigger...so i better go now.
2. go to the beach. as often as possible. no excuses. i don't care if it's raining.
3. visit important historical landmarks/museums. now there aren't too any of those in miami becuase many folks really didn't like living here until post air-conditioning days..but there are a few worth seeing.
4. go to disneyworld? this is a long-shot. but i have never gone and it's some leftover childhood fantasy that may be better just left alone than spending hundreds of dollars to really just wait in line all day.
5. spend more time with friends here. i will miss them and i'm pretty sure that if i have anything to do with it we won't be movin back here any time too soon.
6. learn more spanish. i've been pathetic with this and even though i know way more than before i moved here. my vocabulary sucks...so yeah, better get hauling it.

any more suggestions? let me know. i've got a little more than a month to go.
