1) Got my car insurance dealt with! Yay! So now I have my policy canceling as of the 15th of June, and my Ohio policy picking up the same day, and ID cards being sent, and I'm saving $120/month between the two. Damn. Now that makes me happy.
2) Working on my paper. David's taking the kids tonight so I have extra writing time tonight and tomorrow, and he's got the kids this weekend too. Either way, first draft is due on Monday, so packing et. al. can commence thereafter, as that's the worst of it right there. Revisions will still need to be done, but that's a much easier process.
3) Pondering getting back on South Beach again. My bp is up and I need to do something about it, and that would definitely help. Given my level of broke right now, though, I'm not sure it's managable. On the other hand, I have a canker sore from stress and sugar makes it worse, so now's a great time to cut that from my diet. Hmm.
4) Took a big bag of books to Half Price today. Got almost $10 for them, if one rounds up somewhat severly. No matter. Still fewer books in my house and more change in my pocket (and thus more gas in my tank. Go me. I'm trying to be severe with myself in my book purging, as I know I will end up looking at all these books and thinking, "Am I sure I really need all these boxes of books? Really?" And everyone who helps me move will be thinking the same thing. That said, I think I'm nearing the end of my purge.
5) Have an appointment to get my brakes/tires/car checked for the trip next Thursday. I need to go get my emissions thing first as I have to get new registration before I go (I know, it's crazy) and then again a few months from now. If I don't meet emissions for some reason, I'd rather tell them when the car is already scheduled for the shop than have to go back.
6) On track to get the street permits for the moving trailer next week. Thats more money than I want to think about, but I'll make it work.
7) I have an appointment to see an apartment the week after I arrive in Cleveland. I really like what I've seen of it, and the management company has a great record with the BBB. It's a whisker high for my ideal price range but not over my max, and the location is good. We shall see.
8) I just finished filing my Q1 state taxes this year and owe nothing, which is what I'd hoped. One more thing off the list. Go me.
As you can plainly see from this list, I rock. :) Now back to the paper.

Exceptions to this (for me at least) are cook books and art reference books. Aside from that, a lot can be had from a local library. (oh, and gaming books. Jason has taught me that those should never be gotten rid of)
