A new moving list

About 4 years ago, when I started this blog, I kept a to do list here so that I wouldn't forget stuff. And here I am, preparing for a big change again, with a lot of details to remember, so I need to keep a list and it might as well be here.

How is it that I'm packing again?

And how is it that even after less than 2 years packing still starts with throwing shit away? I've given myself a rule that if I haven't touched it since I've been here it goes. I imagine there will be some slight exceptions, but generally it's a good plan. But after the great purge that was moving out of the house I didn't think there was any junk left in my life. Maybe it's new junk? I'm sure I'll be happy to be rid of it though when this job runs out at the end of October and I'm officially homeless.

Circle of Confusion

Thanksgiving has come and gone and now the mad sprint to the end of the semester commences. Tomorrow we have our first final. None of my professors put their finals in finals week to save us from having to do everything at once. Guess what.

So here's what I have left to do in the order it is due:

The stuff to do is endless

I've been crossing things off the earlier to do list, but then I keep adding things to it as well. It has been helpful to me for not forgetting stuff so I'm gong to do a new and improved list here.

I have a moving date

August 11th

School will certainly be better than this

This is officially my last 'weekend before a meeting poster processing crunch' weekend. I am beyond happy. No matter how busy school gets, how intense around finals, or crazy with deadlines piling up it will not be as mind deadeningly boring as this job is. To be fair the whole job isn't as soul suckingly dull as this task. But 10-20 hours a day for 5 days before the start of every meeting is. It's not good to wish your life away, but right now I can't wait to move to Boston.

Not my stuff

I actually have a lot of work to do, but I can't seem to get myself focused enough to do it so instead I am working on getting things in order for packing. It's in the getting worse before it gets better stage. I'm noticing as I go several things that aren't actually mine. I figure this makes a good spot for list keeping. That should help me make sure it all gets back to the right people.

Don't forget to...

I think I need a to do list. And I think I'll put it here so that you can point out all the stuff I've forgotten. This is the order that I'm thinking of it, not the order it needs to get done. Some needs to not get done for a while. But I can cross things out as I go.
