Moving Activities

Here's the deal, folks.

Tomorrow (That's Tuesday, Oct. 16.), I'm loading up all my stuff into a rented SUV and my car with the help of my ever-darling brother and witty mother. The goal is to head out of Huron by early afternoon (1 p.m. is the goal, so 2 p.m. should be reasonable, right?). We plan to drive until we can't anymore, and then sleep. Then arise Wednesday morning and complete the trip to Wichita.

I'm unloading my stuff in the garage of my new boss, and then time-permitting, hunting for a bed and such. We will then spend the night in Wichita, and plan to leave the next morning (Thursday) for Wisconsin. Theoretically, we'll get there by a semi-reasonable time Thursday night.

I think I'm going to sleep a good part of Friday, and then do a lot of walking - because I'm pretty sure I'm not going to want to look at a car again any time soon.

Hanging at home through probably Tuesday morning, then visiting friend(s) in Minnesota on Tuesday afternoon-evening. Driving to Ames Wednesday morning and visiting people there, then sleeping at Kate and Jaime's place!!

Thursday, Oct. 25, I'm driving back to Wichita and signing my lease. I may start moving in then, or more likely will do the bulk of the moving in on Friday.

I will then have a little more than a week to get settled in Wichita before starting my new job. Eek! Someone tell me why moving halfway across the country is a good idea...? (Other than the obvious...I seriously need a covered wagon.)

For my 6 loyal blog readers, the obvious implications of this schedule is that any new posts will be scarce to non-existent for the next few weeks. Please don't abandon me! I'll be back! I promise! Okay, I'll probably scare up a post or two while I'm at home. And I'll probably pop over to Steven's place and update once or twice before I get my internet set up. However, depending on various factors, it might be a few weeks before I have my own internet again. So look for a return to regular blogging in mid-November!
