Thinking, decisions, less is more and so on
Decided that I won't be attending either RustyCon or RadCon. I'll miss seeing folks. But I don't have the money, and if I do find a job, it's unlikely I'll be able to get time off so early in a new position. It'll keep me from adding to what debt I have, which is a goodness. But like I said, I'll miss seeing folks. RadCon Bob's already offered a measure of Jewish-mother guilt--I promised him I'd attend next year.
Also, I'm looking into what it would mean for me to go back to school. I'm doing research. I'll post more here when I know more.
I'm continuing to divest myself of stuff. I have a theory that if I do all this right, then it'll take only one new bookcase to put away the last of the homeless books in my place, and I've made space for said bookcase. The acquisition may take place later this week.
Not only do I need one more bookcase, but I need a couple of tall floor lamps. I'll be trolling sources this week. (12/28/08, 8:30 AM: ETA: I trolled Craigslist and discovered some possibilities that will cost me almost nothing--woohoo!)
Back to the decluttering and cleaning. My house may actually look presentable tomorrow.
