Day Two.

Let’s quickly recap Day One:

I went to Urgent Care as the stomach pain in stomach kept increasing. Dx: ulcer + infection. Tx: I.V. fluids + antibiotics + an acid blocker.

I also started taking this sell my old car and move thing seriously. Went to the BMV and changed over the license. I was then fleeced by the moving company I had scheduled last week. Their fee magically doubled when I went to pay the deposit. I felt the ulcer bleed a little bit harder as I realized I have two weeks to move my stuff and no movers. Oh, did you know I live on the fourth floor?

I slept in the middle of my bed. Normally, I always sleep on the same side, and hug the edge. Well, last night, I put my pillows right in the middle of the bed and slept there. Alex enjoyed the change. He had plenty of space to stretch out.

Day Two.
I went through some clothes to give to Goodwill.

I try to reformulate a plan for my move.

Took a trip to City Hall to get my personal property tax paperwork so I can file
paperwork to get more paperwork for my car. [Side note: What is up with public employees? Do these workers take a class on how to be rude and asinine or is that personality trait a requirement for the jobs?]

I cleaned up the apartment and took pictures of the things I am selling and made a little Craigslist Draft.

I cuddled with Alex. He’s usually not a cuddler, so I think he’s taking one for the team and letting me cuddle with him and practice my Swedish animal massage techniques on him.

And most importantly for Day Two- the despair isn’t so overwhelming. I can breathe, I can think about tomorrow, I can slowly feel my excitement growing about my pending move to Cincinnati.
