In case you were wondering, a combination of packing everything I own haphazardly, moving at the end of May, never fully unpacking, then packing half of the things I own even more haphazardly, and moving over the course of three weeks means
- I'm living out of my drawers stacked on top of each other in my parents' living room (my dresser is in the basement),
- I have to tiptoe over dishes, books, and shoes to find my new toothbrushes (which were obviously packed among DVDs, bracelets, and a Belle from Beauty and the Beast pen),
- Packing to go on a month-long vacation is exponentially more involved than it would normally be, and
- I used to have a purple dress. It seems to have vanished into the ether. Or it's in a box somewhere.
In other news, I talked to Alex at CCS today, he got me oriented a little with the organization and what to expect in the coming weeks. Mostly what I garnered from the conversation was to not worry too much that I know very little Spanish. Un poquito. I don't know if that's how it's spelled, but spelling isn't the thing I'm worried about.
So, the road trip starts tomorrow! I'm stopping in DC to drop off keys with Molly (sadface) then heading to Grandma and Grandpa's in Binghamton. One of my favorite places on the planet.
While we're on the topic of driving, and to give you incentive to keep coming back and checking out my blog, I'd like to share one of my favorite driving songs. It's impossible not to dance along, especially while stuck in traffic. I dare you to try.
Also, before I go, be sure to e-mail me your addresses at umwtallyb@gmail.com so I can send you a postcard!
