Back home again

I've been away from the Internet for the last nine days because we just moved from the gargantuan metropolis of Atlanta, Ga. to the diminutive town of Lake View, Ala. (population approx. 1,400). Between packing up all our stuff, finally closing on the house, and then moving in and unpacking, I've barely been able to keep up with all that's going on in the world. But now that we're pretty much settled, I should be able to get back to my usual routine.

I won't start school and work for two more weeks (assuming I get in--I've got to go check on that tomorrow). As of last Tuesday (the last time I was able to check email), I was still waiting on a recommendation letter from one faculty member (I guess they're the toughest ones). At any rate, I'm going to Tuscaloosa tomorrow to take care of paperwork for my job in the athletic department, hopefully meet the new basketball coaching staff (and say hello to the baseball guys if they're around), and finalize whatever I can for my grad school application.

For now, it's off to put the deck furniture together...I had to stay home from church because the refrigerator's being delivered today (we don't know what time). So I might as well make myself useful.
