Well, that was that — I’ve signed my termination papers at work today. It’s an odd feeling not to have a job, even if I’ve known for months that this day was coming. If I wasn’t moving at the same time I’d have absolutely nothing to do right now… :-)
I’ll need to tie up some loose ends tomorrow: a bit of cleanup at the apartment, mailing my friends a list of stuff I can’t take with me but seems too good to throw away, figuring out what to pack and how (I wasn’t thinking straight when I had the big suitcase packed in with the household move and left too many small ones behind), and do some last minute shopping. That should be it.
I rented a Dodge Dakota to drive for a week. I’ve found out it is just a bit bigger than an average parking spot…
