it's done! the question: what is it? 'it's it — what is it?' wow, i'm annoying. well it = the website, as well as the room slash packing. the website took a bit longer than i had hoped, but it came out better than i thought it would as well. it will be live tomorrow, and i can link it here if i so desire to let you all in on exactly what i've been working on. plus all of you nerdy web designer types can make fun of my non-elegant code and lack of external css. yep!
as for the room, that took a lot less time than i thought it would. i could've gotten it done faster still if i had been a little less discriminate, but i had fun finding some neat stuff i thought was completely missing. actually, now that i think about it, i probably spent more time detailing my car than i did in the room organizing and cleaning. here's a picture of the big haul:
total: 3 red crates, 2 plastic bins, 1 cat carrier, 1 suitcase, 1 safety case and a computer case that's completely filled with a ton of random stuff. all that + my clothes and my personal effects [including laptop, monitor, etc.] is everything that's going into the car. hopefully it will all fit, and by fit i don't mean physically fit within the dimensions of the vehicle, because that is a given. it's just not that much. by fit, i mean not cause my car to sink down so low that my tires and wheel wells get to know each other on a first name basis, if you know what i mean.
the collapsing cabinet and potentially collapsing cat-scratcher tree are a different story. not sure how i'll manage to squeeze that in there, if it's even possible.
oh my! so much to say. lots of things happened today. this morning i went to visit grandpa in the hospital, which was good. i didn't get up too early, don't worry. he had an angioplasty yesterday and he was discharged today, so my mom and my aunt kelly drove him and lynn [de facto wife] to ramona and they took themselves the rest of the way out to ocotillo wells. after that, i cleaned a bit and chatted with my friend richy brasher, whose wife's blog can be found here! it was nice, and we talked about reformed theology, which is always great. then i talked to my wife which is always greater than talking to anyone else!
tonight was the first half of my two-day event to celebrate my leaving california, which was held at buca di beppo, a pretty nifty italian restaurant. i had chicken parmesan, which was somewhat lackluster, and some pretty good pasta. their bread was excellent. all but six people who said they were coming actually came, which was cool. got to see the lazzes, the stimsons, the seevers, my sister and bobby fleury. all in all, it was a good night with some good times. tomorrow night we will be at the coyote bar in carlsbad, where my dad will be playing. come hang out!
man, i blog so late. it's 3am now, and i started this a looooong time ago. tomorrow is another busy day, and monday i'm gone. pray that i'll get everything done! i still need to: get a set of alan wrenches and get the 'boom booms' [sub-woofers] installed in the trunk, replace my wiper blades, fix my wiper fluid shooter thingy and secure my duct tape rigged intake boot. yee-haw! oh yeah, i did one other thing today:
yep.
