New Name?

It’s been a year for the blog, and well, I’m not in Kuwait anymore. I’m moving to Kansas for probably a year, though predictions range from 1 month to forever. Mine, it’s a year. If everyone else could predict the future, I’d have paid someone off to give me mine. Let’s go Lotto!

Anyways, I’m thinking of something like 365 Armadillo Days, something like that. Maybe something like The Adventures of a roving geek…who knows. Both of you that read this, give me some input.

Tomorrow is Kickoff. I get the truck, the couch, and two storage units packed. We’ll travel about 300 miles give or take, sleep. The next day, we’ll drive about 700 miles, and crash. The next, it’s move in, take the truck back, organize, and sleep in our very own place day. If all goes well, I’ll have cable, internet, electricity, and phone hooked up that day as well. Yee haw. Things go smoothly when you plan, and when you have entirely too much experience in moving.

It’s bed time. A long day is awaiting, to be followed by a long day, to be followed by a long week.

Peace

Tis The Season

I’ve missed just about every Christmas my adult life. This one is an exception. Here are the parts I enjoy…Being around My little girl, being around Jessica, and being around friends.

The parts I don’t enjoy…shopping and commercials.

Ok, well, the first part of this [everything above this] was done on the 17th. Boy, what a busy day….

Christmas was busy, 3 kiddo’s, a million presents…It seems the kids enjoyed themselves though. They got a lot of stuff. I have my little girl until tuesday night, when I have to take her home for the last time in a while. I’m moving to Kansas, which is going to be interesting. IT’s going to be quiet I’m assuming, and busy. I have a lot of airports to take care of, education and certifications to get done with, and the rest of life to live. It’s making it annoying that I am moving just a couple of days after Christmas…just adding to the stress. Right now though, the stress doesn’t seem to be bothering me too much. I’m too used to this sort of stuff I suppose. I am going to miss my little girl though, and that’s going to be the hardest part.

It’s way past my bedtime…I”m out.

Two weeks and counting

This it the time I have been home. It’s past the two week mark, the time when it would seem it’s time to go back to work or whatever. It doesn’t seem strange that this is a permenant thing though. It’s just hard living on a friends couch, visiting Jessica everyday, coming back to a couch at night. Hopefully I’ll find out in the next week where I’ll be working. Hopefully. It’ll probably be Kansas though.

Kansas will suck in a way, but it’ll also be a days drive to my brothers, or to my dad’s, or to my family in STL. It’ll be a long day, but a day none the less. It will be two days from the kids though, two days from all of Jess’s friends and family, and everything she’s used to. In a way we’ll both be in the same boat, but I’m used to this. It’ll be a learning curve, that’s for sure.

The past two weeks have been fun though. I’ve gone to a couple interviews, which none really seem to pan out yet, and I have another interview soon over the phone for one last job relatively close to here. I’ve already told my boss that I’m underqualified for the position however…he still seems to think that there is hope in me getting the position. It’d be nice though.

I’ve had my little girl for the past two weekends, and it’s been fun. She seems to be adjusting fairly nicely. I’ve had to hold my tongue a couple of times too, I don’t need to rush her back into my life where she’s not used to how I am. Overall though, it’s been nice.

Hopefully in the next week or so we’ll know where we’re going. I just want to get on with it, and though having time off is good, it also sucks. I’m getting ansy to do something again. I’m not used to this ;)

It’s Saturday night, and I’m not even bored.
