November 5th; we're moooooving!

Well, we went to look at a new place last night, and it's wonderful. It's got two bedrooms, lots of storage space, and a backyard! I get my own bedroom, I get to bike to work, and we'll finally have a room just for the computers. Life rocks.

We're moving December first, so I'll be taking a break from doing todays from about Thanskgiving to December 3rd as we pack up and get ready to go. Just called US West, have to call a bunch of other places by the end of today. I think we'll be hiring some people to do the loading of the truck on the Ballard end of the journey, because I don't look forward to attempting to haul the desk down two floors, really.

I also think that we may want to rent a car for a couple of days while we move.

Housewarming party tenatively scheduled for the 20th or so of December, to coincide with a holiday party. Maybe.

Let's see. Laura's a CL in Wellesley now. Yay for her!

A tech support person just stopped by my desk and gave me a Bigger better Monitor. i now am among the something like 2% of the population on the Web that runs at resolutions better than 1024x1168. this rocks, totally.

I'm fading rapidly as the sun sets, so i think i'll finish up here and go home.

Oh, a couple more things; I managed to get a better picture of me done and up. I have pictures of Melanie now, so i think i may do a page about her soon. Maybe. It depends on how brave i am and how much I really think i can face about what happened with her.

i'm not really sure I can do it right now.

And I don't know if it's something I can risk doing, frankly. I mean, peace with Shannon is so very fragile, and i always mess it up by revealing too much. Maybe i'll do it but I won't show anyone. Maybe.

I don't want to look like i'm dwelling. But, well, I am dwelling. And when I dwell, i write. I have been tending to dwell in HTML lately.

Gah. i should go home. I'm depressing myself.

"I have blessings
There's nobody there, there's nobody home
Yeah, the blessings
At the moment when I was most alone
And aimless as a fulltime fool
the joke was on me
I got all those birds flying off of that tree
and that's a blessing"
