Made It

Before I say anything else, let it be known that I have the sweetest boyfriend in all of the universe. He just brought me pizza and a margarita. :-)

Travis and I loaded our stuff into the U-Haul yesterday, and man, we have a ton of shit. A ton. We packed an entire 17-foot truck to the max. I blame it mostly on Travis - but then, he was the one with the couch and the bed. And more movies than I can count. And a bunch of records. And I don't even know what all. We were afraid my stuff wouldn't fit after we loaded his, because it took up most of the space.

Well, after we did our loading, we said our goodbyes, and then headed out. Driving through Dallas, I nearly had a heart attack, because at one point, we had an 18-wheeler on one side of us, a concrete wall on the other, and an 18-wheeler in front of us. Despite my sleep deprivation, I was wide awake with terror until we made it out onto I-20. Then finally, I fell asleep for a little bit.

When I awoke, Travis and I began to talk, and we had an absolutely wonderful long conversation that reminded me why I feel just fine with the idea of being 175 miles away from home with just him and my own self to rely on.

Then... we were here. We pulled up in front of John's house and honked the horn. He came out and hugged us, and suddenly, somehow, we live here now. It's crazy.

I slept for most of today, but Travis dived headlong into this new web series that he and John and Greg and Harvard are working on called Infamous. Supposedly, I should be working on it later, and in the meantime, John has given me the task of promoting it around the internet, which I am doing so even now. (As in - go check it out on Facebook. Website up soon!)

We unloaded most of our stuff this evening, and it's a lot of stuff to maneuver. I guess we'll figure it out.

But man, we're here. We're living the dream!
