I'm Back..

So after taking a little over a week off...I am back.

I have finally settled into life in Arizona. Things I have learned so far:

1) It's Fracking hot here! (dry heat or not)

2) Water is your friend...no seriously!

3) Rain is a funny thing here.
We had a storm the other day that knocked the power out for a few hours. The storm, by Illinois standards was NOTHING. Here though it was a severe storm warning seek shelter or you may die type of storm.

4) I can't wait to be golfing in the middle of "winter". (should be fun)

All in all the move has fine, the transition is going well, and I haven't burned yet! But, then again I haven't been in the pool in the middle of the day yet either!

The Move is on...

Oklahoma City...Night two on the road.
Now if only I had time, and an excuse, to see the nightlife. Now there would be stories!
But, we are making an effort to visit the Federal Building Bombing Memorial before we leave.
Next stop...Albaquerque, NM. (que the Wierd Al music...or Neil Young..your choice)

D.W.B--part 2

Goodbye Illinois!

Hello Missouri ... Final stop for the day should be Oklahoma City. Really need to find a Best Buy since I just broke my power inverter. Sadly that means I can't listen to the 20,000 songs on my hard drive!

Right now I have a 90's retro weekend show on. Don't know if that is really cool or if it makes me sad that the 90's are considered "retro"!

D.W.B

D.W.B-- Diving while bloging

By any standards a dumb thing to do! But, here I am doing it anyway! Never claimed to be bright!

So far the trip had consisted of me listening to the new Watson Twins cd (Fire Songs)...and the new Motley Crue cd (Saints of Los Angeles)!

FYI---the crüe still rock!

Goodbye -- Illinois

As of this hour....I am on the road heading out of Illinios into the sunset (ARIZONA).

I guess there is no turning back now! Well...there is turning back..but why would I want to!?

Move West Young Man...

So I just realized that I am about to leave Illinois for one last...last time! Barring the state of Arizona being listed as a wasteland and off limits to the general public, I don't think I am ever coming back!

It's kind of a strange feeling now that I am thinking about it!

When I moved to California I always knew that I would be back to this area to see my parents. But, now that I am moving to AZ at the same time as my parents...and with my sister being out there already! I don't know if I will find a whole lot of reason to come rolling back though central Illinois.

Unless my friends decide to stay around here...which is looking less and less likely, I don't see a whole lot of vacation trips to Central Illinois.

Not sure why I got thinking about that...but, I did!

Blagh....

How is it that I am still about four weeks away from moving to Arizona and I am feeling stressed?

I have nothiing to pack really. My whole room will fit into like four rubbermaid tub, and the trunk of my car!

I guess it's the whole, "Still haven't heard back on my job!" front. Seems like it won't be a problem to transfer to AZ but...until I hear a solid YES your on our schedule, it's a little strange.

I would like to say my move to Cali taught me something about moving with no job! But, we will see!
