Bored during lunch
So basically, I'm sitting at home, on my lunch, and I'm bored. The house is almost completely packed up and the overall realism is starting to hit me. This is really happening, I'm getting out finally. Andi's dad is coming out next week and she will be heading back that way on the 3rd with the Uhaul and the pets. I'm gonna be moving in with a buddy for my remaining two months. All I'm really going to be doing is playing City of Heroes and banking some cash. So I've been thinking of other tasks to occupy my time and I think I'm going to start exercising. A guy I work with uses this totally rad thing called a Kettlebell. Basically it's a Russian dumbbell which looks like a cannonball with a handle. With just one of these you can get a full strength/cardio workout. There are exercises that work like 5 or 6 different muscle groups all at once which is great for a semi-lazy man like me. The one I'm getting is 16kg (or 35lbs) and cost $60. The cool thing is that while it may be pricey, it'll be quite awhile before I'm ready to upgrade the weight. So instead of buying a full weight set for like $300, I'm getting it all for much much cheaper. And it'll fit in my car.
Anyways, my terminal leave will be starting on Jan 1, 2007. My final out (aka my last offical appointment), has yet to be determined (should know by this afternoon), but once I finish that I'm done. Once that appointment is done I'm going down to my dad's for a few days to visit, then heading back to the motherland. So I'm estimating anytime between Dec 27 - Jan 4 as my arrival date. I can't begin to talk about how excited I am to be coming home. But I'm also just as terrified. I'm about to start the rest of my life in two months, and I wonder if I'm ready. I'm lucky I have Andi so I don't have to go it alone, but I'm scared I won't be able to provide for my family and that I'm going to fail. I don't know what to think though. I don't have a job lined up, there are a few that I am interested in but nothing definite. Luckily, I'll still be getting a paycheck until Jan 29th so I've got some time to find something.
Ok this ramble has gone on long enough and I gotta get back to work. Take care guys!
