I was over at my mom's today trying to organize my boxes and boxes of old possessions / memories to decide which ones I want to take and which to leave behind, as well as to grab anything else I want to haul to Seattle (chairs, clothes, etc.) Some pretty old memories in those boxes; some are tough to see again. It's starting to hit me how my move is only a week away, and how it's such a large step in my life. Going off to university wasn't even this big.

Going through those boxes makes me want to fully process, come to grips with, and find a resolution & closure on every event and relationship that I've had over the past ten years. But I don't think anything's ever that clean cut.

Wait. I'm not normally this sappy. Sorry. It ends here. What is this, LiveJournal?

Things are pretty well fully planned out for me over the next week:

• Tomorrow, head back over to my mom's for more sorting / reminiscing, then dinner with Denise
• Friday, hang out with Mike in the afternoon, then a farewell party (apparently!) at my place with everyone who can make it. I hear I'm going to get help with my unshippable-alcohol problem.
• Saturday, hangover recovery, and dinner with my uncle & family
• Sunday, pre-move packing
• Monday, the movers come to pack and haul my stuff away
• Tuesday, last minute stuff
• Wednesday morning, I'm out
