Moving and packing

I'm tired. Last night was a long night, for mostly silly reasons. Hence, today is a bullet point day.

• The movers are coming on Saturday morning. That's exactly what we wanted. It means we can get pretty far on Saturday, drive all day Sunday, and arrive in Denver at a reasonable hour on Monday.
• It's all starting to feel real. We've made appointments to look at rental houses and apartments when we arrive in town. It's funny to think that soon we'll be living in one of those places.
• The lovely Alice came over last night to eat dinner with us and retrieve the paper cutter she lent us for the purposes of making wedding invitations nearly a year ago. She was a doll and did not complain about the nasty, box-filled, trash-covered state of our apartment.
• That was the last of our social engagements for the week. So, tonight we finish packing, and tomorrow we load the car with the stuff we're driving ourselves and clean up the place. And then Saturday... off we go! The sad part is over, though. Everyone has been bid farewell. Now it's only our apartment that we'll have to say goodbye to.
• I still have to pack up my office. You'd never know tomorrow was my last day in it from the way it looks. Vases, photos, books, papers... plus I need to stock up on supplies for my home office. I do not look forward to hauling all that stuff home on the bus.
• We really need to get lots of sleep tonight and tomorrow so that we can do lots of driving over the weekend without getting exhausted. I wonder what the odds of that happening are.
  
• I wrote a post about the difference between fat and unhealthy over at Bodies in Motivation. You should all go read it and weigh in. It's such an important distinction to me, but so many people seem to feel differently about it, and I'd like to see what all of you think.
