Getting ready to move

[unixronin]

...And while I've been pretty frantic this weekend because it seems so much of what still needs to be done, needs to be done at the last minute, I think I'm going to be ready.  I have five boxes of stuff that are going to get shipped ahead tomorrow, and possibly one or two more on Tuesday.  I probably wouldn't need to ship anything, if not for having two large monitors (a 21" and a 20") and a significant pile of computers to bring with me.  It may take some trial-and-error to find how best to fit everything in, but I think it'll all go.  I'm doing pretty well on getting the perishable foods used up, except for the frozen stuff -- there's still a whole bunch of frozen chicken in the freezer.

The plan is all the furniture and the housewares are to be gone by noon, then I finish loading, ship a last couple of boxes ahead if necessary, grab a free burrito for lunch from the new burrito place over at Mathilda and the bignum, and then hit the road.

Last time I did this solo cross-country stuff, I was 20 years younger and had a lot less stuff to move.  That one went fairly smoothly.  This time I'll be going the opposite direction, but ironically, going most of the way on I-80 again just like the first time.

This is far from the first time I've moved.  Hell, it's far from the first time I've moved on my own.  Why do I feel so jittery?

Ahhh see? now I'm back in the loop!!

Congrats to you both on the new employment (hopefully this will be the one that works out for you, too!)

We're waiting to hear today-ish about polityx's potential job offer... pins & needles!
