Counting Down...
Okay, I'm trying not to panic. The movers are coming Friday, and I don't get to leave early today. Things are too hectic here. Fortunately, I do have the rest of the week off, but I'm feeling overwhelmed. The movers are coming in three days. I have tonight, tomorrow, and Thursday to clean my apartment and pack things into boxes. It's coming down to 'what can I just leave here for another week?' I'm packing as much as humanly possible and letting the movers move all of the furniture and as many boxes as possible. Closets have dropped to the bottom of my priority list right now. If nothing else, I can grab some clothes and take them with me to the trailer and just deal with it for a week if I have to. I'm so glad we actually have the apartment until the end of the month now.
I'm so frustrated just sitting here at my desk, though, when there are so many things I could be doing. I actually got a fair amount done last night, and all the while I was screwing around online too. The good part about that was I got to play a really cool scene with Caitlin, Kip, Micah and a few other of her friends. The bad news is she might get killed, because she made the wrong person mad. White Wolf doesn't call it the World of Darkness for nothing. But, last night we were coming up with a plan to get her back on everyone's good side. We'll see what happens.
I'm working on moving my writing page over from Geocities, which includes some scene logs of roleplay that I've done online, and might explain some of my references here. It's kinda funny, I'm not sure how much I should explain and how much I should just let go. Ah well, if all else fails, and anyone is completely confused, just mail me, I'll explain.

Well, some of the blind panic has faded. If all else fails, I just won't be sleeping much over the next couple of days. I think part of the reason I'm so freaked is because this is the first move I've ever made completely by myself. Which makes sense, of course, as I'm going to be living by myself. Now I'm sitting here fidgeting. I want to go home. I feel productive! I'd be much more productive there than here. :P I barely managed to get the rest of the week off from work. They wanted me to reschedule my move and come in on Friday. That, of course, is out of the question. Looks like I'm going to have to come in Friday after the phone company leaves, though. The drawback to working the late shift. No one ever wants to work for me. I can't say that I blame them. If I were used to working 8-5, I wouldn't want to work 11-8 either.
Hopefully I'm going to Indiana the weekend after my move. James is in a production of "The Crucible", and I really want to go see it. Besides, I haven't seen the boy in over a year. I need to go see him before he dyes his hair bright red, apparently. So if you're in southern Indiana and you're interested in a production of "The Crucible", email me and I'll get you the details.
I should be making a list of all the things I have left to do. I should, but I'm afraid it would scare me. Okay, off with me to the post office. Updates might be very scarce for the next week or so. I won't have access to my nifty work computer, and I'll be super busy. I'll do what I can, though. This might become my refuge.
