I was difficult to reach, but you picked me...

I've got everything packed up that I had laying around my grandparents' spare bedroom. I just have to pack up some of mine and Ryan's clothes that we'll need once I get out there. My parents are going to ship them to me. I just have to pick out what clothes I can get by with for the next week or two to take with me in my small suitcase and carry on bag for the plane. I won't have anywhere solid to stay for a while so my parents are shipping a few boxes of artsy stuff to keep me busy and my printer once I get settled. Anything else I can buy once I'm out there. Ryan and I are not short on money. He's making triple alone what we made together in Knoxville. Granted we can't afford anything crazy (like home theater seating), but we aren't struggling. The logistics are the only thing making this move slow and frustrating.

Otherwise I haven't been up to much. I started transferring some of my old journal entries to this server. I've got through 2005 from my private journals. Unfortunately my public journal from that time crashed a while back so much of that is lost forever. There's a major gap in entries from '04 as a result. I might be able to find some saved entries on some CD's and my flash drive if I research, which I might do once I'm moved and have nothing better to do. In the meantime I'll keep transferring the ones I have online at my old journals before they, too, are lost forever.
