Another Sigh of Relief

Whew. All I have to say is, “Whew.” And possibly, “Yea!” Never told the Anderson clan this, but I thought I might have to cancel my visit next week. My advisor told me that I needed to attend an early orientation next weekend, but he was wrong. Hip hip horray. Oklahoma and Austin, TX here I come!!!

Also, I am finally enrolled. Plans (other than my apartment and moving needs) are taken care of. I still can’t believe I’m moving from Oxford. In some ways, the transition is becoming easier. A lot of the folk I like to hang out with have been so busy, and many are starting new phases of their lives. I even had a chance to make peace with the history department and had a nice chat with one of the profs.

Every once and awhile, a reason to stay will pop up. For example, Veritas is growing so much in depth that they will widely reach the community this year. I would like to stay and watch that happen. They basically offered me a midnight-9:00 am shift at King Library when I visited this week. But honestly, those hours would probably kill me. Maybe not literally, but I’m not sure.

Just one more cool thing about today, and then I’m going to bed. I got 9 or 10 boxes for packing from the copy shop. I love the boxes from copy shops with their wonderful lids and heavy cardboard. It’s packing heaven! (And not near as embarassing as packing Biblical Studies books and my language books in vodka boxes that I picked up from the liquor store near Curves.)
