Umm...what?

It looks as though we're leaving the East Coast on the 12th instead of the 19th, so disregard that one line from the previous post! It's now 21 days. THREE WEEKS. Ho-Lee Shit, Batman.
So Emm and I have LESS THAN A MONTH to get everything ready for the move. Why do I have the feeling that we don't have enough time to be ready for this?? Why do I also have the feeling that we'll somehow be ready well before then but we'll still be freaking out?
Added to the fact that there's an icky weather front coming our way and WDHA said there might be a dusting of the white stuff we've been hoping to avoid. ARRRRGH! There is NOT going to be snow on my watch! Nosirree!!! X(
Anyway.
Found someone to buy my car. I just paid off the loan so all I need is the title. I should probably call the bank today and ask them how long it would take to get it and if they could speed up the process because I want to sell the damn thing. I got $500 out of the deal, which isn't bad considering the amount of miles I put on the thing--probably a good 110,000 since I bought it in 2000. I'm now commuting with Emm (I'm halfway along her commute) and I even offered to drive and pay for gas. Cuz I'm a nice guy like that. :)
Three weeks.
THREE WEEKS.
Me? Stressed?
Yeah, probably a little bit. ;)

Date: 2005-11-21 07:15 pm (UTC)Actually, the ice is the problem down here, especially after snow. It thaws in the day and freezes on the roads overnight and there is more salt in my saltshaker on the table than what gets put on the roads sometimes.
I miss good 'ol Boston. By midwinter all cars are white from dried salt no matter what color it was originally. Of course, then they are all red from rust in the summer......
