Getting ready for the Big Move...
May. 1st, 2007 08:53 pmSo, the time is coming up fast. Plans are in place. Apartment is cleaned out. Trailer hitch is installed and U-Haul is reserved. (I'm kinda excited about towing the trailer... something I've never done before.) Loose ends have been tied up with the Army. Friends have been visited. Timeline has been established. Boxes are packed. Stops along the way have been set, and a route has been outlined. This is REALLY HAPPENING.
I'm a bit stressed, I'll admit. I'm afraid of things going wrong, or that I'll forget something important - not like forgetting to pack an item, but forgetting to take care of a loose end that I need to handle immediately. And this is a HUGE change for me. I'm quibbling over new career paths, and plans for the summer. I still need to reserve my plane tickets to London for Sectus, which I'd previously held off until I knew if I'd been flying out of Kansas City or Boston. And while this is what I want, more than anything, it's still a bit scary. Just such a big change. My girlfriend is definitely worth it... more than worth it. (Have I mentioned lately that I'm definitely in love?)
Well, I'm nothing if not independant and adventure-seeking, so this is just a big adventure. Right?
Now, on another note... I've got almost my whole route set. I was going to stay in Connecticut the first night, because I'll be leaving New Hampshire a little bit late on the 4th (I need to actually load the trailer on Friday morning), but the person with who had invited me to stay has a wedding shower to attend, and she's in the wedding party. She had totally forgotten about it when she made the offer. SO, I need a place to stay on Friday night, somewhere between Connecticut and the eastern part of Pennsylvania. If you want to see that part of my route, use Google Maps to get directions from Hartford, CT to Scranton, PA. I need to make some distance that day from New Hampshire, but I don't think I could make it any further than Scranton PA, at the absolute FARTHEST.
Er... does anyone live in that area? Anyone who'd like to have a friendly, Hobbit-like creature and her pet snake spend the evening? I'll bring homemade chocolate chip cookies! :D
