Here is a low down on what's been happenin' so far. (December 2007-Jan 2008)
Dec 20th : El Casa de Perez went on the market. Whahoo!
Dec 26-31st : The 3Js + Matt (Jessica, Jonathan and Jacob) showed up. At the end of their whirlwind visit, I was short a leather furniture collection, a desk, a kitchen table, some bikes, some dinnerware, and a few other odds and ends. Such is la vida - if you can't help family, you're just another jackass.
Jan 2-4th: A mass of tiny Mexicans packed and stored my stuff in a huge 18 Wheeler. A neighbor stopped by, not to wish us luck or to ask if he could help, but to blame us for blocking the road, causing his trash not to get picked up. "How odd," I said, after he brought this oversight to my attention. "That waste management holiday schedule change must have only occured for everyone in this area but you." He apparently got upset because he left rather quickly. I certainly hope it was something I said......Jackass.
Jan 4th: Coming soon: Michelle packs up her car and hits the highway. To put this comment into context, before Jan 4th, I had about 12 hours MAX TOTAL lifetime experience driving on any flat surface which required I go above 55.
In other words - me no likey highway driving.
Stay tuned to hear about the adventure which eventually leads me to Stockholm, Sweden. Included will be snippets about a 7 foot tall drag queen, city-street-high-speed-police chases, flying 8 hours non-stop on James Bond's plane, a Steven-King-esque hotel from Hell and how it is home to the smallest trash can known to mankind.
