staring over the edge of the cliff

awake early and packing before dressing, lugging boxes down flights of stairs and denting the hood of my car, listening to the new speakers until my ears hurt and then mulling around the office, emptying the desk, distracting myself by pricing computer components, solitaire, woody's barbeque, meeting my sister at the hookah lounge to dump boxes in her jeep, meeting with laura for a last beer before i leave

It's amazing how quickly everything clicks past. Everything has spun into a blur, and the terror is sinking in. I'll soon be passing over the edge of the cliff. It will certainly be nice to have a few days free to just read or sleep.
