Next: The Good,The Bad,&The Too Horrible to Contemplate

In Case Im Never Heard From Again

Before I tackle the topic addressed in the title, I need to insert a small footnote although if its at the beginning, it can hardly be called a footnote, can it? Crap! As to that Ill just fall back on the failsafe diary line of reasoning its my diary and I can do what I darn well please!

Chickie and I went to the movies last night at her request. We had to go to the smaller nearby theater (No offense, Mom but EVERYONE will be at the BIG theater and Yeah, yeah I get it. Cant be seen in public with your mom would totally ruin your social life. hehe) We saw XXX with the new action hero Vin Diesel. All Ive got to say is imagine James Bond meets the X Games and throw in a softened Brooklyn accent

Back to the topic at hand.

Tomorrow I leave for Atlanta. Monday the movers will arrive between 8 and 10 a.m. (translation make sure youre up at 8, but we wont show until 9:59) to pack up my stuff. At some point during the day Sis will arrive on her way back to FL from NC.

Spend Monday night in a hotel (GREAT rate in a super hotel courtesy Hotwire.com) and on Tuesday, the movers will arrive at who knows when and load the stuff they packed on Monday onto the truck. Spend Tuesday night in a hotel (see above comment about rate) and then close on the sale of my Atlanta house Wednesday morning. Drive back to FL post-closing (crying most of the way because I really took it in the arse to be able to sell the house so quickly) and separate Chickie and Daddy (if one of them isnt already dead). Thursday afternoon, close on purchase of FL house, if Daddy doesnt implode first. Friday pray that the movers have found their way along the treacherous path from GA to FL and that my stuff will be unloaded unscathed.. Saturday unpack. Sunday spend the entire day doing a happy dance in my own space then change my new phone number so Daddy cant call right away, lock the doors and hide out in case he drops by to help.

IF I survive the upcoming week..you are all invited to the worlds longest housewarming party. I mean really I know you cant all possibly get here at the same time so the party will just have to go on until every last one of you makes it! And I realize that those of you in the frozen north (*smiles and waves at all the snowbirds*) may want to delay your arrival here in the sunny south to coincide with the impending arrival of a really big snowstorm where you live. Thatll be fine Ill keep a patch of Florida Sunshine warmed up for you.

If I dont survive the upcoming week well, perhaps you could all spend a brief moment reminiscing in my honor. Oh and somebody make sure to write a letter to the editor in the local paper here rebutting (even if it be half-heartedly) the opinion that I was clearly unstable otherwise I wouldnt have snapped and gone on a shooting spree which killed movers, packers, realtors, mortgage brokers and assorted family members.OK?

You’ve never worked for the post office have you?… Moving is so stressful but you’ll be okay and once in your own space (with chickie out at friends house) you can wiggle your way around throwing your arms in the air crying “It’s all mine and you can’t have it,” with a wild look of passion in your eyes…
