Moving - glah. Loaded the truck Sunday, cruised from Philly to Pittsburgh, unloaded the same evening. You've been there, done that so I won't get into it, but consider me officially as having whined, okay? Ten beer-cases of science fiction paperbacks, another ten or so of literature and philosophy, and only three and a half of medical text. Sorta makes you wonder, don't it?
I'm now exactly one calander month from starting. Four weeks, give or take a couple of days, before the Big Change. One Lunar cycle for as much denial as I can manage financially. Do you really wanna hear about lost evenings in various Pittsburgh watering-spots? Nah you're better off going out to have some fun yourself: the stories will be better and besides, you and your friends will be the stars.

Dinner with my folks & Dennis tonight. Coffee & espresso at La Dolce, then Mum & Dad took off whilst Dennis picked up cigars to take over to Al's. Yeah, we picked up one for Al too. Followed up random conversation with a traffic nightmare that foiled our attempt to see an R&B act in the South Hills - we ended up hanging in South Side for a bit, then cruised up to a friend's place that overlooks one of the best views in the city.
Dennis observed that I should probably be commenting on my use (or mis-use, as the case may be) of this time before I start - you know, focus a bit on fear & loathing, and the like. He might have something there, I dunno. I'd actually intended to toss together a short blip saying that I'd remain mute until I start work, but I guess I won't.
Gotta run out tomorrow and pick up sandpaper so I can finish the drywall downstairs. I hate finishing drywall. The only thing that is nearly as loathesome is painting. Such is war - it gotsta be done.
Tell you what - I'll see y'all in a week, hopefully with something a bit less broken and inarticulate.
