Priorities

"Everything is beautiful and she is so beautiful, she is so young and old, I look at her and I see the beauty of the light of music..." -R. E. M. - (You Are The Everything)



Good afternoon everyone.  I'm happy (ECSTATIC!) to say that I lived through the commuting and that I will be moving up to the ATX on Monday.  So naturally I'm typing a little post for you instead of packing right now... #priorities  I did wake up early this morning to get to the post office to pick up change of address forms, so there's that...  Oh, and my new address will be:  15 Austin Way, Austin, Texas...  Did you see the episode of friends where Chandler tells Janice that he's moving to Yemen?  (If not, then you didn't appreciate the address joke)...  ANYWAY..., when I was driving to Walmart from the post office, I had to lay on my horn to get some vultures/buzzards (hey, I'm not a bird expert) off of the street before I hit them.  There was a total of about 10 of them, and 3 of them were in my path.  As I drove by them, I starting thinking, "if I had hit one of them, would the rest of them have started circling overhead???"  I also made my fantasy baseball changes before I arrived here (again, priorities)...  Being pressed for time, I'm going to give you the "Cliff's Notes" version of the standings today (yes, "Cliff's Notes" does cover my fantasy baseball leagues)...  My teams are currently in 8th, 6th, and 3rd place (with the top 2 teams in each league getting paid)...  Last night I took the nails out of the walls, and today I will start the actual packing of my things before do some cleaning.  I plan to head to the Square to say some goodbyes tonight (because Austin is SO FAR AWAY) before finishing my packing and cleaning tomorrow.  I SHOULD have a post for you tomorrow also, then again on Monday, and hopefully on Tuesday I'll be posting from Austin, Texas (I have Time Warner scheduled to show up Monday morning - yes, again..., priorities)...  Speaking of priorities..., 7:00 p.m. tomorrow night on NBC, the Hall of Fame Game, featuring the Dallas Cowboys and the Miami Dolphins.  It's preseason, but that's how ready I am...  :)  I posted about this game as a facebook status last night, and I can already tell that people are ready for football to begin...  For those of you that I won't see on the Square tonight, thank you for your support.  Whether it's simply been as a reader of the blog (a MONUMENTAL ENDEAVOUR, suffering through these posts), or whether you're one of the people that I know more closely, who have played a role in helping me get to the point where I'm about to make this move and do some positive things, I really appreciate your kindness...  I think that the fall and the coming football season promise a lot of fun here for my little blog, and I look forward to having you along for the ride.  By the end of the season, you should feel proud to say, "I was a reader back when..., well..., when NO ONE was a reader..."  ;)  I really need to get some other things done now, but have a great day and I'll see you again tomorrow!
