This week has been somewhat productive for me.  With the upcoming move to L.A., I’ve had to start mapping out how I’m going to pull this move off.  Some choices are really easy, like quitting my current job before I leave; others are not so much, like when to give notice on said job. 

Additionally, motivation can be a factor.  My room in its current state could probably be declared a federal disaster area, which would be really great because I need the money.  However I don’t see that happening, so I’ll have to clean it myself.  I also find it a challenge to actually get rid of things.  I’ve managed that sort of mega-purge a couple of times before.  Most of the crap this time is paperwork that I need to carve through one step at a time… fun fun!

I also had my last business meeting as the head of my local Mensa chapter this week.  I’ve had that gig for two years and I think it’s been largely positive for me — better growth of my social skills and trusting others with accomplishing tasks while still feeding the control freak in me.  But I am glad my time is done in that job… honestly, in some cases term limits can be a blessing. (With a friendly nudge, nudge to Congress) So now it’s time to look forward.  I don’t know what will come next in Mensa for me…  I’ll still be a webmaster for a while.  I’m sure I’ll be active in one of the several L.A. area chapters as well, but I’m also needing to focus on my entertainment career, too.

Thankfully, if I’ve timed everything right, I’ll be able to take a small road trip before landing in L.A.  I haven’t been up to my Uncle Bob’s for a couple of years at least and I could really, really use the downtime away from everything.  I’ll also get to stop n on the way to visit my brother and his family, which has now grown by one with the arrival of Son V2.0!  I’m excited to see the little critter and all the rest of them, too… it’s been too long.  Almost wish my parents lived within this circuit too, but I’ll have to wait until the bigger holidays to see them, I suppose.

Per my previous post, I’m still working on the video end of things.  I’m working on finding a way to keep the bandwidth costs down for doing this, but I may just end up sticking it on my YouTube channel and linking it here. Stay tuned for that as well as additional updates from me as I keep working on this site!
