“feeder road”…. huh?
I have no electricity in my apartment. And while I was somewhat proactive and bought a shower curtain, I neglected to get a rod for the curtain (which makes me think I should have kept at least one of those 8 rods I found while packing up and leaving California).
I did get to take a cold shower this morning, doing my best to keep the water in the tub, but I can’t say it was the most fulfilling bathing experience of my life.
There are lots of problems with the house I want to buy… not sure if the seller will be willing to fix them, but I suppose it will come down to how much they want to sell the house. I just might be back to looking at new places, though.
I’m supposed to be in Austin by 5am tomorrow to leave for a short trip to California to wrap up some loose ends there. This means leaving here by 3am. Something tells me I’m not going to get much sleep between now and getting on the plane. Good thing I slept those 12 hours last night in my apartment with the stale, still, hot air on a Wal-mart air mattress under a bath towel. So classy, I know. Nobody better ever call me high maintenance ever again.
I’m at the coffee shop charging my cell phone. I need to go buy toilet paper and confirm a cat sitter. 
Sounds like an awesome new beginning!
Ten to 1 says you coming out smelling good. Plus, think of all the great stories you now have.
“Well you see one time I drove to Texas in a moving truck with a cat…”
Two cats!
Niko, the boy cat, did not really like the drive – he hid under the truck seat the whole time unless I called him out, and he HATED the hotel room we stopped at – meowed the entire time.
Clem, however… I think totally loved being on the road. She looked out the window a lot and sat on the passenger seat looking over at me every once in awhile. And a few times during the trip she got up on the dash….
They really did pretty well with the whole thing.
phew! and if this morning i felt like there is a huge mountain over which i must climb standing between me and october, i sort of feel a little more relieved now, having read your perspective. hugs to you, and i hope you found someone to help you unload temporarily. i wish texas was closer and i could round up people to help you!
exciting prospects!
