Huh. That Went Well.
Now that it's the First Quarter of 2006, corporations are starting up with their projects, which means that Your Humble Head is suddenly in demand again after a few quiet months. I had an interview today that went well enough to put me within a hairs' breadth of a new gig.
Which is good - new cash flow means getting almost entirely out of debt before the wad o' house money comes to me, which means that it's a real wad instead of a wad I've already blown, and I can then take most of said wad and use it on the trike trip.
It's also bad - the gig is entirely on-site, so after having had many weeks of bumming-around time during which I could have been getting the house ready for market, I'm suddenly going to be away on a job for five days a week. D'oh!
On balance: right now, I'd rather have the craziness and the cash than lots of free time and no cash. I'm ready to get back into the game...if only to provide appropriate contrast to how entirely out of it I will be.
This is one of those times when it's vital to have a good realtor. We're using the same realtor we used when we bought this place three years ago - and it took us a year to find it, so we've known her for four years. We can call her and say "Waugh! We're freaking out!" and she will walk us through a plan to get everything done. And, in the regular timeflow outside of this written narrative, we've made that very call. So, what I was going to write at the beginning of this post is now irrelevant.
And there you have it. The bloggish mundanity is upon me! And it will remain so until I get more nifty gear for the trip.
Hoo-ha!
