Only the hard drive will remain to be installed into my new computer in July. Meanwhile, my old "home" email address will remain active, for those of you who hae it.

But the yahoo address I use on this MB is the main place to email me at for the next few weeks.

I hope to have access to a computer at least once a day between now and Tuesday afternoon, but not entirely sure.

Getting close now, huh?

Well, I just finished the last full day at the office, and said good-bye to a few more people, including the Secretary/Bitch From Hell.

My arms hurt from ripping paper...but my office hasn't been so clean since I moved into it. Too bad I won't be there to enjoy it...NOT...

This old computer will be unplugged in about an hour. I'll post tomorrow from an Internet Cafe around lunch-time, OK?

It's sooo nice having friends to go thru all this with, even at a distance. I appreciate every one of you.

What you're doing right now is quite simply one of the most romantic things I've ever witnessed, and your continuous commentary has been such a pleasant joy to follow. You seem to alternate between adult rationality and schoolboy giddyness, which is really delightful to see. Smile

The best of luck to you in your future endeavours.

*HUGS!*

In fact, all that remains is the hard drive...I had no idea it was only as big as a piece of bread...huh!

In fact, I'm at the office, my thinking being why spend money on Internet time and snacks when there is a free computer, and nobody else here today, and I'm still the boss until tomorrow night?

My apartment looks like a train wreck right now, and more people coming soon to pick up more bits and pieces. Anybody want the fake persian carpet from the living room?

Anyoen ever ntoice how when you go to pack suddenly the things that were 'just there yestarday' are suddenly no longer there. Like the stuff sack for my rain coat. My hiking boots. My glasses, my passport Razz. All the little things that just vanish. Razor, toothbrush, addresses, wallet. All lost to the night somewhere. Things are getting really testy these last couple of days. Some of the guys aren't speaking. We will have an endless meeting wednesday before we leave. We have a meeting monday. I cannot locate a rubber chicken anywhere!! The hardships I face Smile see yall later

Timmy really should make it nice and pink and fluffy, I have to swallow down my heart every time I type the wrong pass (I have a ton of 'em these days), and I really hate that.

And um, forgive me for asking, but what are you going to do with a rubber chicken on your trip...? :):)Smile
