WTF. OMFG. LOL...Not Really. AYFKM. (are you #*^%ing kidding me? - I just made that one up...btw)
Ok, so now this is serious. Ever hear of that study where they give a rat a bunch of impossible tasks to achieve, he fails miserably and ends up attacking an innocent tennis ball? Well, I'm that rat - still waiting on the tennis ball. although nobody has thrown a tennis ball in the cage yet. We've really painted ourselves in a corner now. I placed a casual ad on Craigslist several weeks ago "fishing" to see if anyone would want to rent our place for 6 months while we're galavanting around the globe. Amazingly, we got a hit. Mindy and John David have offered to rent our place for 6 months, pay our bills and take care of John Cash, our dog. I'm rapidly running out of excuses not to pull the trigger. Money? We have very little but who cares at this point. Time? Lot's of it. At least I will once my company gets wind of this and unceremoniously fires me.
Here's how the day went: Emily (my wife), Mindy and John David had dinner last night and concocted this idea about how it'd be easy to have them "transition" into our house at the same time we're "transitioning" out of the house. I like to think of myself as a positive person, I really do, but a couple of glitches come to mind. 1.) Mindy is 8 months pregnant, 2.) I like it here and I still have a full-time job, 3.) We don't have tickets leaving the Unites States...that I know of.
We set the jump-off point for August 28th. Lots to do between now and then.
