Random bits:
I got everything ready to take to the car last night and then packed it this morning. I can't find the bag or strap for one of my cameras; I have a feeling it's in one of the sealed garbage bags from the bedbug nastiness. I'll make do.
I meant to pump the tires on the car up to maximum since I haven't checked them in a while, but I forgot to. My bike pump usually lives in the car, but I took it out to make room. Should have left it in for a couple reasons, in retrospect. I'll probably buy a cheap little foot pump with a gauge at an auto store and that can live in the car.
I've had this feeling for a long time that my co-pay on my therapy visits ought to be lower and that they might be miscategorizing something. I looked thoroughly through the plan docs (could they make them any harder to find?) and the $40 per visit is correct. $160 per month is a lot of money for us, especially with Danae not getting a stipend this Summer, but it has been valuable for me.
I'm going to try to pick up some overtime after I'm back from my trip. I have two days of open-to-close coming (7:00 to 10:00), and I'm going to see about taking some people's weekends too. But that's for later.
For now, I'm just waiting 'till 3 o' clock so I can get on the road. I finished printing out instructions and maps and directions. Mostly I'll use the GPS, but for a few things that don't really have an address, dropping pins on Google Maps to get directions is a help. Even with that, it might be a challenge to find the nuclear blast site I want to visit near Parachute, Colorado. But that's part of the fun!
Mik, a friend who Danae originally met in California (if I recall correctly) has been staying at our place for the week as he travels. I haven't seen a whole lot of him since I leave before he gets up and I go to bed early, but we've played a couple of board/card games and had a nice time. And it's nice that Danae will have company for a couple of days at least after I leave.
The library at work is being torn up for renovations, and most of it is happening over the next week. The timing of my time off is coincidental, but I will not be at all sad about missing dust and loud noise.
