Closing on Monday

Monday is the big day! That's when I'll be closing on my condo. Then Tuesday is the next big day when all my stuff gets moved in. It will be nice to have my things about me again (although saying that in that way reminds me of Maureen O'Hara in The Quiet Man. For those who haven't seen it, it's excellent and has a great brawl scene).

Then on Saturday of next week is my sister's bonfire party. I think I should get some kind of award for racking up the most miles to attend. The first year or two was only travelling from Virginia, but then two years in California and now from Boston.

In non-home related news, I took a trip down memory lane tonight. I stopped by my fraternity house for a visit. I had been delaying the trip for some sort of psychological reasons, but tonight was the night to stop by. I am glad I did, since they are close to completing preparations for the blacklight party. It has evolved since the days when I lived there, but these things happen. Although a lot of things have changed, many things have stayed the same.

Hrmmmm... I think that is about enough for tonight. Actually that is probably more than enough tonight, since the nice bartender at Whiskey's has been plying me with drinks all night. I'll chalk it up to practice for the bonfire, even if I don't plan to live up to the nickname "Timber."

EDIT: Oh, I actually knew that I was going to be closing on Monday yesterday, but I didn't put it in my blog because I didn't want to upstage my sister's birthday. Of course, she'll probably just hit me in the stomach for adding this edit...
