Rainy Days=Preparation

It's funny how it's the greyest rainiest day of the month, and I come home. and Mike and I are in good moods. That's definately a good thing. And we both got the "you better get ready for this weather when you move." today.....

Two weeks. The countdown has officially begun.

Mike and I have been getting a lot of questions regarding our trek westward. So here's the gameplan everyone. We are getting our uHaul (actually Budget truck) on the 31st. and will be packing that thing like a mad 3-d tetris puzzle. Mike's a professional though (I'm only semi-pro status) but we will get it to work. Our departure is the 2nd. Our good friend Lindsay has volunteered to entertain us on our trip, although we won't all be in the same car. We will have the uHaul, with a trailer pulling mike's car, and then I will be taking my car, following close behind. The trip is a 3 day venture with a stop in CO (Hey Jenn!), a stop in Idaho, and then our travels will be completed in the Emerald City.

This is my last week of work, I took my last of vacation days and will be spending next week preparing (packing and working on my portfolio) myself for the move. I'm not totally sure what my schedule is going to be the next couple weeks but I would like to see as many people as possible. If you're going to be around, let me know, and I will gladly try to move things around to hang out. No guarantees. but call me. Let's make it happen. I would have liked to have some sort of huge gathering for a going away party, but I have so much other stuff for me to really try to coordinate people's schedules.


The Olympics have been like crack for me. I can't stop watching them. Here's a couple Olympic related links for your liking:
-Design and Branding Trends of the Olympics
-Phelp's Miracle Finish-Frame by Frame of Phelps incredible close match against Cavic

Non-Olympics Bonus:
-Windows Window

-and rumor has it, that the new OKC NBA team name is the Thunder. Really? That's it? I could have came up with a better name when I was ten years old......and to be honest, sounds like a WNBA team (does that still exist?).
