That you are crazy or moving your family to Asia in just a few months*:

1. You quit your job. (Two working days to go…gulp!)
2. You purchase one-way airline tickets to places like Singapore and/or Chiang Mai, Thailand.
3. When walking through your house you unconsciously organize your possessions mentally into three categories: sell, ship, and give away.
4. In an epiphany, you suddenly realize the beautiful convenience of three little letters: A-T-M.
5. Your calendar includes an appointment entitled, "Signing of the Will Party" (gulp #2!)
6. You start developing a hierarchy for "desert island" discs and books and plan accordingly. (Maxim 1: U2 comes before Radiohead and Tolkien before Lewis.)
7. You realize the relativity of terms like ‘See you soon’ and ‘See you later’.
8. You panic at the realization that you are, in fact, mono-lingual. You relax, compose yourself; then you panic again. (gulp #3, gulp #4)
9. You find yourself in a teary-eyed, parting embrace with your dental hygienist.
10. You wonder if your Frosted Mini-Wheats will taste as good in yak’s milk. (Who are you kidding??!! Good luck scoring Mini-Wheats in central-east-Asia.)

(*or, more likely, you could be both.)
