it's 7:30 in the morning on a saturday, and i've just dragged myself out of bed.

it's been a full few days. i haven't even had time to check my email. my colleagues from europe were here for 2 days of meetings, it was good, but taxing on my attention span. on thursday evening we went to aquaterra for dinner, then i met up with jill and her friend kelly for a cup of tea. i was pretty exhausted, and ate way too much that day.

yesterday was day two of meetings. after which b and i had our first pre-marital counseling session with devona. she said that since both of us came from divorced families that it's crucial that we do this counseling, and i think she's right. she was a very affirming person is every way. which i really liked. i really like affirmation, it makes me unfold like a flower. our first session heavily focused on myers-briggs, and how that affects our interactions. it was very revelatory. we have some home work to do on that before we see her again. it was very good.

after that we had dinner at grecos (i really wanted copper penny, but it was jam packed), then began the process of moving. andrew and shannon move into their new apartment on princess today and b is moving to the erbs place. the idea was to get most of brendan's stuff taken care of last night so that we're free to help a+s. they're in a tight spot because the old landlord wants them out by noon, but can't move into the new place until after 6. so we're taking everything to next during the afternoon purgatory. we did well with b's things. we took all the things he wouldn't need at the erbs here (it's all on the back porch waiting to be sorted out), and the things he doesn't need we left on the lawn with a 'free' sign. hopefully it's gone by now. we moved the big double bed to my place, and he'll take my single bed to the erbs for the next 2 months. my days of single bed sleeping are over, it's bitter sweet – i liked my twin bed, my new double is less padded and it takes up more space.

it's going to be a full day. i should go get in the shower.

pack your clothes and your guitar.
