Moved.

Notice the period after "moved". We are now moved, it literally took an entire week, to close, move, and clean the old house.

I can honestly say, that i did not remember how difficult it is to uproot, and this was only approx 8 miles away!

I have to thank my lovely wife, G.E., without her, this would not be possible. She risked life/limb, crippling back pain, and possible insanity. You see, moving is a rough task for us, it's literally the only time we fight. It think this move was a 7 out of 10 overall, but the pain of the actual moving will linger for weeks (I'm sure G could tell you about that, after the marathon cleaning spree at the old house yesterday).

Now, we get rid of stuff we "thought" we needed. Get our new studio setup (when is that delivery?), finish a small basement, build a deck, move a fence, and so on....

Time to get on the bike. Speaking of, my fully suspended Diamondback Mission has a crack in the frame. It's ironic, because i was just dissing some guy a few weeks ago who told me he had one that cracked, then i went on-and-on about how that would never happen to me. Well, it did, and i didn't even know it! I should be more angry than i am, but, it's an opportunity to shake things up, and that's the flavor of April 2011!

Interesting 7-11 conversations and Moving

Stardate 4.10.11

Captains Log: I witnessed 2 Sheriffs deputy's in 7-11 discussing how when your shirt "rides up" under your bullet proof vest, that you need to head back to the office to fix it, and re-dress yourself. Brilliant. I have had this problem also, but i'm not sure (as a officer of the law), that i would leave my post for this reason.

It's Monday, and the planned close for the new house is Friday, move Saturday. The tension shall build all the way to Friday, burst Saturday, and probably all go smooth. The Garage sale was impressive this past weekend, and we purged a ton of stuff we did not need, and some our friend did not need either. It's amazing how quickly junk will sell when it's priced at $1.
