The end of an era . . .

You know, I've been working in the same building for 24 1/2 years. Yep. Damned near a quarter century.

That came to an end yesterday. I am now officially on vacation, in preparation to my move to the new Douglasville office.

Yes, it was a bit sad, but I"m also looking forward to beginning this new chapter in my life. I like the new apartment, and the area seems to be pretty cool. We'll see.

I still have quite a bit of work to do. Still got a ton of stuff to haul out to the dumpsters. I got lucky earlier today--I was tossing this cheap, beat up old electronic drum kit and when I came back to the dumpster to toss the pedals one of the guys landscaping the property here was fishing the drum kit out and putting it on a little cart. So, I took advantage of this opportunity to get rid of my old and extremely heavy TV set--dude was happy to take it off my hands. Since I actually gave it to the guy instead of making him have to dig it out of the trash he also got the remote that goes with it, too.

Anyways, I estimate I'm maybe two thirds of the way done going through all my stuff. I need to hurry--have to be done by Thursday morning, when the surveyor comes by to come up with the estimate for the movers. I think I can make it.

Keep your fingers crossed for me!
