packing up to move over...

now only if they'd get a computer set up for me...

they have one, but it's busted and needs to be re-built. And the guy who does that sort of thing just got in (a fellow SCAdian).

I'm currently backing up the info I need (like email profile stuff and personal documents) onto this little 4G travel drive that Marnen brought a few days ago.

My current desk is in the process of loosing all the little personal touches that make it mine. I have drawers that are empty except for my purse (which I'll take with me when I leave). My overhead compartment only has my plastic table ware and other food related stuff, so that will be moved after lunch.

It's a little sad. I like my current accounts more and more as it comes closer to me leaving...

yes Sugar....

one step further in moving to the new job...

except for the 21-inch montior that's coming over when my pc is finally set up, and the hanger that my jacket is on (which I'll move over on my way out the door), I have everything moved over to the new desk. I'll be checking my email from my old pc until my new pc is set up, which shouldn't be long (and not that big of a deal because I'll be in training on the new desk anyway).

In fact, I've been moved from my previous spot (the up until 20 minutes ago spot) because of the 2nd shift guy who's moving to first moved to my spot so he can be with the 1st shift team.

Seven years and a couple of weeks.

I've been busy the past couple of weeks. I knew the day for what it was, the seven year deathday of my father. But I've been keeping busy, a mental whirlwind, and didn't get much of a chance to think about it.

Then on NPR this morning there was a Story Corps segment, with a woman who was writing the eulogy for her mother. She mentioned the last time she saw her mother before she died. and I was crying by the end, while I was driving to work. Hell, I'm crying now to write this.
