i packed the last of my clothes and stuff that will not be needed until i arrive or that won't be travelling with me. i am now officially living out a suitcase for the next two weeks. if i see you in that time, forgive my clothes for smelling musty or of cat panic. i have three or four more days of work, after which time i will break down my computers and i will really be living on the fringes.
working while you're moving is a challenge. if you have to move across the country, i highly recommend taking the time off from work to focus on the move, rather than trying to elegantly coordinate your schedule, workload and move timetable. it will end up in a chaotic mess and things will invariably get missed. i speak from experience because i've never ever followed this advice.
i did have a chance to have a very grand dinner with some very old and dear friends tonight. i will miss them a lot. but it has been a great opportunity to spend time with them here and reconnect. if nothing else comes from this experience, i will have gained more incentive to use google chat or Skype when i move back to toronto.
tomorrow, i ship almost the last of my things and take a bunch of stuff to my parents house for storage. i have my desk, my sofa and my bed remaining. that's pretty scant places for my cats to run and climb and lounge on. but fortunately all of those things have a place to go on this end, so i'm clear to travel light.
wow - this was a terrible post. sorry for just phoning it in. i'll try and put more though into tomorrow's post.
