The move back to Houston hadn’t really hit me until I encountered one of my to-doos today on RememberTheMilk.com: reserve a moving truck. Suddenly I found myself staring at a big trip plan:

The way U-Haul works is that when you reserve the truck, you fork over a couple hundred bucks and pick the moving date. Ouch – that’s like, really soon now. Really soon. And I gotta pick a date and stick with it. Wow.
Okay, now it’s sinking in!
I’m sure you’re excited about your move, but now who’s going to talk to me at hockey games and holiday parties??!!!!!!
Welcome back to Texas. Look at it this way, at least you’ll still be visited by the occasional hurricane
Oh, and if you come back up to Dallas gimmie a call. We can grab a bite and make fun of our old job.
