Next week, I quit my job.
A little more than three weeks after that, I leave San Diego for good.
I waited so long for this to happen, and now it's all happening so fast.
Make no mistake, life has been busy and good. I'm working less and going out more. I'm still at heart a recluse, but I'm making the effort.
I'm reading like woah. What should I add to my google reader?
Also, feel free to add recommendations to my Subrosa-style lists.
Fun things to do before I go:
Shakespeare's with my old boss and her boyfriend [
]
Big friend dinner at Kensington Grill [ ]
Have dinner with my other, soon-to-be old boss [
]
Get a fucking good haircut [
]
Comic Con! [ ]
- Seduce Randall Munroe [ ]
- Stalk Ben Browder at the FARSCAPE PANEL OMGGGGGG [ ]
Plan quality family time [ ]
Get drunk at the Blarney Stone. Possibly sing Violent Femmes songs. [ ]
Potato tacos from JVs [
]
Swap meet [
]
Midnight Back to the Future at the Ken! [
]
Not fun things to do before I go:
Book an extended stay hotel that will accept pets [
]
Map a route and mark good stopping points [ ]
Cube business
- Measure all of my furniture to make sure it's going to fit in the cube [
]
- Buy padlock for cube [
]
Get boxes from PP [
]
Call landlord and schedule an inspection time [
]
Pack up important stuff that has to go in the car (eg, Waterford crystal, letters, bird supplies, guitar) [ ]
Obtain bubble wrap [
]
Bubble wrap the shit out of things [
]
Get TB test checked [
]
Get an oil change and check the cooling system in Zippy (thanks for the reminder, Stiles!) [
]
Clip Pablo's wings [ ]
Cancel internets [
]
