New year's eve: went to my workshop to try to find the rest of my video cables. Could not find them. Called my brothers and was on the phone 'til about 930. Fell asleep in my desk chair and did not wake up 'til 130 am when a security guard shouted through my door to make sure everything was okay.

If he had told me "Don't bother with cleaning, the place is getting gutted" I could have ( Read more... )

...and the faint strains of a locomotive's air horn.

I is poopded. Progress has been good, still much to do. Have to be cleared out by the 15th. Monday and Tuesday will be intense hauling. The whole business is costly and exhausting. Wish I could take time out of work. No dice. Oh well... baby steps
