I am really :yawn: tired, but I’m going through withdrawl, so :pen: write I shall.
FRIDAY MORNING
- 3:30am – went to bed
- 7:00am – alarms went off
- 8:30am – dropped Daniel off at the U-Haul center
- 9:10am – arrived (by myself) at Wal-Mart. Went straight to automotive department to get the oil changed/fluids checked/etc. in the :car: Kia
- 10:00am – left Wal-Mart
- 10:20am – arrived at house, left note & few items for Chris/Dave/Toby
- 10:35am – took pictures of Long John Silvers for Daniel
- 11:00am – arrived at Petco. Bought cat carrier
- 11:15am – finished filling gas tank. Went back to Petco for free 5 lb. bag of Purina One cat food
- 12:00pm – arrived at the apartment. Daniel had loaded everything (queen sized mattress & box spring, dresser, large hutch style desk, nightstand, entertainment center, kitchen table, four chairs, microwave cart, small cedar chest, 15 boxes) but my desk, the two desk chairs and several boxes and electronics into the U-Haul
- 1:25pm – finished loading up the U-Haul and car. Everything just fit
- 1:10pm – headed to computer lab to let our families know we’d be on our way
- 2:30pm – left gas station and headed for the PA turnpike
The drive was long, boring and mostly uneventful. It was a bit crowded, and we were held up for about ten minutes because of an accident, but other than that, just blah driving. Daniel drove the U-Haul and I drove the car. Toby and Mulder were in the backseat, their carriers side by side, and BooBear and Max were up front, their carriers double stacked. :cat2: All but Mulder slept the entire time. He meowed and moaned. :irked:
When we got off the turnpike we switched vehicles. :car: What an experience! :wow: It was awesome being up that high, but a bit freaky. Because there’s no rearview mirror (the truck part comes up above the front part, cab-style) I had to rely on the weirdly positioned mirrors for lane switching. I couldn’t stop as fast because of the weight, and the truck was obviously wider than the car, and I was afraid of sideswiping cars/trucks when I passed them. We switched again at the gas station, and I headed home to my family and he to his. I got here around 8:00pm. :whew: Boy was I tired – running all day on about three and a half hours of sleep isn’t very fun. Oh well – I still didn’t go to bed until nearly 5:00am Saturday morning. Talk about wanting to do myself in! :rotfl:
Saturday was non-eventful. Went over to Daniel’s to give him the electronics (I had those in the car along with the cats) and to get my things, as well as to follow him to the U-Haul center here so I could bring him back. My family and I all went out to K-Mart and Wal-Mart, and now everyone but me is asleep. We’re going to church at 9:30am, meaning I need to be up in exactly three and a half hours (again… :sarcastic:), so I suppose I should go to sleep. :nod: So yes… that’s what’s up!
:cats: The fur babies are fine for the most part. BooBear has a slight limp still. :whimper: All four are hissing and spitting at Suzie, who doesn’t really do much to them (though she does occassionally jump on Max :rage:). Also, Toby hates BlueBoy (my grandmother’s cat, who my mother has had here since August of 2002), and BlueBoy hates him. Before I moved out the two of them would go around and around – stalking one another, walking by each other to instigate trouble, hissing, spitting, swatting, growling, etc. We had to break them up a few times with a broom. So, not only do I need to keep the damned :pug: dog off of the five cats, but I need to keep BlueBoy and Toby as separated as possible. :shock: I certainly have my hands full.
Ooh, pictures! :bounce:
From left to right: Daniel, Dave, TJ, Chris; me in the middle:
The Christmas tree!
Okay, well, I really need some sleep. Goodnight! :wave:
P.S. New cam pic! Also, remember that stalker dude? :mischievous: He was in the computer lab again on Friday, and Daniel said he came around the parking lot right before I came home. He was also there watching me when Daniel and I pulled out. :eyebrow: Freaky, don’t you think? Bye bye stalker dude! :flirt:

Glad the move went fine!
And man, it sucks when animals don’t get along… I remember what it was like trying to keep Kalinka (my family’s dog) off my rats, or how it was when we got Grizzly. King freaked! Also – if scary stalker dude shows up in [private], I’m willing to come over and bite his toes if you want? ;D
Oh man sounds like you were very busy! My cat does that in the car as well, except it sounds like she is saying “noooo” haha. Get some sleep chica, you can’t drain yourself so much.
Hey! I’m glad the move went well. Do you think that my layout will be done before New Years? ^_^ Just wondering still.. if you go to creemsoda.com, the locations of certain things have changed leaving my website a total mess. Also, how about the moolah you owe me? I hate to be more pushy, but if I don’t get at least $20 in my paypal account by new years, I’ll be screwed. ^_^ I’m on a payment plan for a server I used to own. I forgot to cancel the server I was on before and my package renewed. They’re stupid shits so.. they won’t waive the payment even though I wasn’t using the server. meh.. oh well. Talk to you soon hopefully.

Maybe i missed something, what happened to Golith? Glad you are home safe

What a pretty tree
I absolutely hate driving anywhere that takes more than 10 minutes.
Driving by yourself can be soo boring!! ^_^ Im glad your trip was okay.. ^_^ Yay to being home! What a pretty Xmas tree!!
Oh wow, just 3 and a half hours of sleep and quite a long drive? Glad the trip was safe.
Oh, and love the pictures…the tree looks absolutely beautiful! I feel the Christmas vibes! :D
You move better than I ever can! :highfive: That stalker guy is a little…umm, odd :haha: But still funny! I’m glad you’re back home and happy!
Oh! I love that Christmas tree! :D It’s so pretty. Anyway, go get some rest! I’d fall over if I had as little sleep as you have had in the past few days. o.o;
