Where to start, where to start?

OK, this weekend is when I start making plans for the Big Move, coming up at the end of March. I was just planning on when I was going to take time off to go look for an apartment, find some apartments close to the new location that have a pet policy that I can live with, research deposits and the like.

Right now, though, I'm just having problems getting motivated.

There are a couple of reasons for it. One is that the task I have in front of me is so overwhelming--it wouldn't be so bad if I had someone to help me but I don't. I'll have to do everything myself. Fortunately the actual moving will be handled by a moving company and my company will pay them, but the rest of it I have to handle solo.

Second thing is my beautiful, perfect little goddaughter, Talyan, booked a gig on Two And A Half Men. She shoots it next week. It could become a recurring role for her. I'm am terribly proud of her, and excited--this is one of the most watched shows on TV, even without Charlie Sheen.

Third thing also involves my goddaughter--the movie she appears in, The Devil Inside, just came out. She only has a short scene in it but there is a lot more on the website. Look for videos of Isabella Rossi as a child--that's her. As for the movie itself--well, exorcism movies aren't really my thing. I guess my atheism makes it a bit hard for me to swallow the idea of demonic possession, since there are no such things as demons. Plus, people screaming obscenities at priests isn't especially horrifying to me--I've done that myself, though I was drunk, not possessed. Anyways, I went to see it yesterday and I've been excited for her for that reason, too.

I'm sure I'll buckle down, concentrate, and get busy. By Tuesday I'll have all the days I'll need to take off to find a place to live and all that, and have some ideas of potential places to live.

I hope!
