“I talked to my landlord. She's upset about the hacking of the tree, too. There's nothing really anyone can do about it at this point, but she has given me authority to oversee any future work around the house or the yard by anyone to make sure something like this doesn't happen again, which is really good, that no work will go on unless there's someone there, in other words generally me, to supervise. Since she lives in California, she can't really come over and watch to assure things go smoothly. So, at least this won't happen again.”

“Now, so shortly after my last call, I talked to the Bell Rock Moving people and they said they are sending out a different truck and it would have been there in twenty minutes which would have, what, been almost an hour ago. And, uh, they are sending 4 guys so it will cost more money per hour for some reason, because they're late I guess?

But, we can't go with someone else at this point. I don't know what's up with these people. Um, but now I just talked to them and they said, "Oh, it's going to be twenty minutes". So, I mean, I could have done something with this time, but no, I sit around here waiting for these idiots.

I'm just getting very frustrated, it's one thing after another, they keep fucking up, and they're going charge me more for their fuck-ups and it's going to rain. If it thunderstorms they're going to sitting around here with their thumbs up their asses charging me per hour for it and they could have done it during the nice weather we had all morning.

Oh my gosh, I am very very angry at this point. Hopefully they'll arrive soon.

I wish I could just go with someone else. I really do. But at this point, you know, you have to hire movers in advance. You can't switch this day. I have to be gone today. I can't get anyone else. There's not time. I'll wait for these idiots.”

“I just talked to the movers and they're going to be even later. They're planning on getting here at 2:00 now, so I'm going to go find something to do for lunch.”

“Watching a rumble of house sparrow hens in the front of the house of clock. 5 of them having a big brawl.

The movers I just talked to, they're going to be here around 12:15. So, I was hoping to start cleaning up house of clocks at that point and be done with the move. But you know, Murphy's Law and all.

I'm so tired, maybe I should take a nap.”

“Well, I just talked to the movers. They locked the keys in the moving truck and they're waiting for a locksmith and they probably won't be arriving un till around 11. I wish I know that earlier, I wouldn't have worked my self so hard, I would of had plenty of time to get ready this morning, but I guess I can wait.

I don't want to do this stuff at the house until they get here because I don't want to, okay, I just thought of the energy yet. I was going to come up with a really good excuse not to do yet, but I didn't really have one. So, good, I will still do it after work, they leave.

See, I'm still not fully awake, I didn't get much sleep last night, at all, umm... but... anyway... soon, soon, soon.”

“Good morning!

We got some more ice last night, the top of one of my parents trees came down. And while we have electricity this morning, we have no telephone or dsl. I'm calling in on my cell phone which apparently still works...

I... got my tickets last night for the rest of my trip. Two tickets to London, where I'll be picked up, and then go to Saint Thomas from there. And er, then tickets back from London to Boston.

And I guess, well. I'll fill you in on yesterday. I had a good time. We all, felt great to be here with my brother and sister, Maddie and Jonas, Christian and Heather, and of course my mum and dad. It's been the whole family, it's something that hasn't really happened in a long time.

i've been having a great time. The ice makes it a bit surreal, but if you know me surreal is good.

I guess that's it for the update this morning. I'll probably do more updating because, you know, I'm addicted to LiveJournal. I make lots of updates. So... that is all.”

“I'm in Buffalo, and it's neitherday; the time between days. I slept through Syracuse, and I'm in Buffalo, as I already said. I'm not actually that tired, but I am a bit discombobulated. I got a lot of good sleep on the bus, which was OK... uncomfortable... And I will be crossing the border soon! And that will probably mean the end of the voice posts because I don't know the voice post numbers after I cross the border.

I'm using the pay phone at the station because my battery is almost dead. I wasn't conservative enough in the use of my cell phone, and I don't want to run the battery out the rest of the way because I still want to be able to use it if any sort of emergency or need would arise.

But... yeah, I'm *laugh* just getting used to owning one! This is the first time I've ever owned a cell phone, ever! And it's kind of strange-feeling. I beep, now. I never really did that, before.

So.. though, no one's called me, yet, so I've never really heard the noise that my cell phone makes. And... I guess that's it for this update. My next update will probably be from Canada, or at least hopefully will be.”

“Good hello, Livejournal Land! I'm making this post from my new cell phone which John got me -- yay, John! -- got me it for the trip. I'm heading off, we're just passing through Newton, which I guess is the first stop, and then a stop in Worcester, and then Albany, Syracuse, and Buffalo, where I'm going to be having a layover from 3:35AM 'til 4:45AM. Whoo! That does not sound fun. Then to Toronto, to London, and then Saint Thomas. And, I will be there! And I will get to see Amber. That will be great. *laughs* I will be very excited and probably very tired.

And then I will be heading back on the 4th and getting home on the 5th. But, on my way back, I have a five-and-a-half hour layover in the evening, in Buffalo. So, I have no idea what to do for five-and-a-half hours in Buffalo. If anyone is from Buffalo, or knows the Buffalo area, and can tell me if there is actually anything to do in Buffalo, which, I don't know if there actually is... or might even want to meet me, because that would be great, and I'm always interested in meeting new people. But, more likely, just tell me what I can do in Buffalo for five-and-a-half hours. That would be great, because I have no clue.

I will be heading home. We are stopping at Newton, and we are at the commuter rail stop in Newton where they pick up the bus passengers. And... I guess, that is this post! Hello, goodbye!”
