My week in 8 bullet points

Things I've been doing while I haven't been updating this blog as I promised I would:

* Completed 2000 mile road trip.
* Drove 16' Moving Van across Manhattan.
* Moved a half-full van into a 2nd story elevator apt (not so tough).
* Built supposedly-clever cheap furniture... with modifications.
* Attended several various Columbia Orientation Events.
* Setup E-mail, Internet, Utilities, Insurance, Vaccinations, Student Account.
* Got Columbia University ID card.
* Registered for classes (actually, just faked it - This place is 90% add/drop after classes start).

Obviously, with all the road time I've had to think, and all the crazy stuff I've had to keep up with, there's a lot on my mind, and I want to share it with you, but so long as I'm scraping my blog time from the remaining scraps of registration, etc. this is going to stay all-too-brief.

When I don't need to mooch internet time at the library (my apt is sans-internet for the next week), and when I don't need every second of web-time for more pressing matters, I promise, more to come.

Actually, I'm already leaning heavily toward a new blog incarnation (the "Lamb" motif still fits as almost everything in my world still maintains a sense of transition and flight, but as things settle down I'll need a new mis-quote), and let's face it, the Facebook phenomenon is probably something not even I can avoid forever.

So for now, please allow me to be a horrid blogger with jittery nerves and a ridiculously over-crowded apartment of cardboard boxes and half-assembled Ikea.

Soon enough I'll just be another grad student with a part-time job, and then I should have all the time in the world.

That is how it works, right?
