Las Vegas or Bust!
June 24th, 2010
(Bye bye Mini Cooper and Old Blue Truck!)
Jen and I are sitting in an empty house with nothing but a folding chair, folding table, a 13″ TV, some food, and our computers. At least we still have internet and DirecTV for a few days! Actually, we have our bed until Sunday, but then the people we sold it to pick up. So, we borrowed an air mattress from Robin for Sunday night. I think we are going to go to my grandparents from Monday to Tuesday, so we will be fine. In the interim, we are car-less and stranded here. I am waiting for a call back from the rental car agency, so hopefully I can have a car later this afternoon.
I have to say… This has been an incredible experience. The goodbyes that I have had in the past week have been a bit sad, but that’s life I guess. In the immortal words of John Fisher, I prefer to say “Ciao” instead of “Goodbye”. I have been blessed with being surrounded by some amazing people in my life – from family, to friends, and colleagues. I will miss them all as I begin my next chapter in life, but this is the path that needs to be taken. And I am looking forward to turning the page.
To be continued…
