Its go-time now... less than three months until I wrap up my close to 9 year tenure with the big FI to start a one year leave of absence. Needless to say there is lots to do in the next three months; find a place to live in Van, figure out what is coming with me and what is staying and oh yes probably most pressing; come to grips with the fact that I will leaving my comfortable little existence here in the big smoke to venture off to the West coast on my own.

Figured I would begin documenting the move plans here and then use the blog to keep friends and family up to date on my goings on once I make the move. My ramblings might also help explain why I have a deer in head lights look the next time you run into me.

So...read on friends and know that I'm already starting to feel sad at the thought of leaving you.
