Safe Arrival
I pulled into my mom's driveway in Ft. Collins, CO a
few hours ago. It was a long drive, but I've done it a million times and the
weather was fair. Last night I stopped in at my cousin Lori's house in Salt Lake
City—always a treat. I also stopped in Laramie, WY near the end of the
trip to visit Jenny Ingram. All in all a nominal journey. Suffice to say I'm
exhausted, and although it's only a little after 9pm I'm dead
tired.

Tomorrow morning I get to show up in the Statistics department office, grin, and hope that the upcoming obstacles can all be handled. Of particular concern is the scheduling nightmare that I ranted about last week. I'm sure the worst case scenario, where I would be told "tough luck" and sent back to LA, in completely unlikely.
(That's the sound of me knocking on wood.)
I've informed the family that I will be doing NO family functions until Friday, especially when it comes to my nephews and niece. Once Friday is behind me, I will become a much more social and friendly person.
So now it's time to sleep and wake up really early in the morning for a fresh start. Next time I write I hope I'll have a much better idea of what I'm in for.
