Progress on the home front

Today (oops, I mean last night) I moved the last truck­load of belong­ings from my old apart­ment to my new one. I no longer need run across town drag­ging box­es and equip­ment and whatnot.

And not a moment too soon, since in about 30 hours I’ll be board­ing a plane for NYC to see xris3 and van­dana­zoe and, I hope, meet jen­ny­bloog (psst! Are we still on for Run Hit Wonder?)

I’ve been wag­ing a war here against my pos­ses­sions. Try­ing to rid myself of as many as I can and give the ones I want to keep their prop­er place. That sounds noble, but it’s dirty work. It’s a war against box­es and piles. Today the piles made head­way against the box­es, even though the box­es brought rein­force­ments. Since I’ve put a num­ber of the box­es into recy­cling I might start putting piles back into box­es in order to give myself some­thing a lit­tle clos­er to san­i­ty here in the SplicerPad.

I did find one of the miss­ing pow­er sup­plies, but alas, not the one to the net­work hub. If it does not show up in the next hour or so before I go to sleep, I’ll buy a new hub at lunch tomor­row. This is sick­en­ing. “For want of a shoelace…”, indeed.

It’s very nice that I don’t have to go back to the old ‘hood to do any­thing, though. This is a huge, huge step. And the rest will come along as it comes.
