Things at home went *more* south on Friday so I packed up all the items we had agreed upon me taking and moved everything to a friend's house a half mile from my new place. That ruined my Saturday, but I'm glad it's done. I hoped to go on a bike ride Sunday to clear my head, but while I left my bikes, jerseys, bottles, helmets, and bibs in my car I'm not certain where my cycling shoes ended up. I think I know, but it's not a convenient location.

In the “moving is stupid” department, today was a busy morning.
Pick up city garbage tote for new house.
Cancel garbage service at old house.
Sign up for city water service.
Change of address at Post Office.
Arrange for washer/dryer delivery.
Arange for cable installation.
Buy hoses, sprinklers, diverter valves and timers for sod.
Tell sod guys green side up. (Didn’t go over well)
Transfer gas and electric.
Let plumbing inspector in and listen to his bored spiel about how it should have been inspected a long time ago.
Buy pretzels for breakfast; I have salt.

"Worse" is when they say GTFO. Even worse than that is when they call the police because you're not moving fast enough or they're fed up with the arguing . . . . even though they started the arguing.

This is not the time to be *****footing around with no weak stuff. Time to go straight whiskey on the rocks, doubles, maybe triples.
