We haven&#8217;t seen each other in more than a week so it&#8217;ll be nice to see my baby.  \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Next Friday morning I&#8217;ll drive over to Indianapolis where I&#8217;ll be attending GenCon.  This will be my third year, and I&#8217;m really and truly stoked.  I didn&#8217;t think I was going to be able to go with all the moving and stuff, but I&#8217;m going to be there afterall.<\/p>\n<p>Monday morning after the convention I have a job interview with the State University Civil Service System.  Then I have another interview in Bloomington, IL later that day.  Though these interviews may be for naught as I may have found a way to keep my current job.  Then I fly back home for my last week of work.<\/p>\n<p>Friday, August 18th I&#8217;ll have my last day at work in Orlando.  I&#8217;ll head over to the house to pickup my stuff, say goodbye to Jackie_My_Mother-in-Law, and hit the road.<\/p>\n<p>First detour is Jacksonville.  Gotta say goodbye to my sister.  She&#8217;s been through a lot this year, and we&#8217;ve reconnected so I can&#8217;t just leave without one last hug.  And besides&#8230; it&#8217;s sortof on the way.  I&#8217;ll spend the night there, and blaze a path for Chambana in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday morning, I&#8217;m going to drive as far as I can before I have to stop, which probably means 12 hours of driving, maybe more depending on how I feel.  12 hours would put me in around Nashville which seems like a nice place to stop on the way up.  I don&#8217;t know anyone in Nashville so I&#8217;ll probably be getting a room at a Super 8 or something.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday I&#8217;ll be within six hours of my destination so I should be there by early afternoon.  I can&#8217;t wait to finally be in my new home, and to sleep in my bed again.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone that wants to call me over the next couple of weeks, here&#8217;s my new cell phone&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>4four 0zero 7seven &#8211; 2two 4four 7seven &#8211; 5five 7seven 6six 9nine<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK.
