So I spent the weekend and the first half of this week on two major projects for my online class. Whoever said that school by Internet wasn't rigorous? Especially grad school. It's all done, as of 10 minutes ago, fortunately.
In other news, Chris & Mason's Excellent Moving Adventure takes place this weekend ... wonderful new place, a rented townhouse in the Arcadia district. Word has it my sweet honeyness ordered DSL for the new place, so no more freaking dialup! Have I ever mentioned how much I hate dialup? Anyway, assuming I can handle a camera without pissing all my minions ... er, helpers/friends and family ... off this weekend, there will be pictures of moving day, the new apartment, and the move-in party. Hurrah!
And in yet other news, I'm finally almost a legal driver. Paid my nasty fine with the City of Phoenix yesterday and got a new driver's license with the new address on it. The only thing left is registration on the truck, which became an issue this morning. Well, at least it was an issue to the nice highway patrolman who stopped me. Oh, the irony. Days before I finally have everything legal again, I get stopped. Fortunately, with a valid driver's license and insurance, coupled with the fact that I'm always courteous and respectful with cops (you have to remember who has the power), all I got was a light fine.
And just think. It could've been a day earlier, or some months ago, before I insured the truck anew. *shudder* I don't think I'd like jail. So, really, I was lucky!
I've also applied for a job with the Chandler Public Library as a library assistant. Fingers are crossed, since I'd finally be working in my intended field again for the first time since high school. But the desperation that has so characterized my experience with the job market in the last few years is totally absent. I really like the job I have now and would only leave for an ultimately better opportunity like this one. We'll see.
Address changes are all submitted, fines paid, new DirecTV install set up, phone number changed over, utilities changed over, most of the house packed, and a bright, sunshiny feeling about the new place. I've haven't been this prepared for a move ever, and certainly never this happy about a move in quite awhile.
Now I've got to find some time to whip the business back into shape ... ergh ...
