Some days I feel I am not adventurous enough

Okay so it's true, moving day, and my birthday, both inevitably occur at the same time as my period. I am coming to terms with this. Nothing says "derail packing" like cramps and the desire to spend some quality time on the soon to be not mine couch watching Life and Times of Tim.

Also I am coming to terms with the fact that my brother and sister-in-law are coming to pick me up in about 24 hours, and my apartment is about 40% dismantled.

That is not a good percentage.

But if all that 'really happening to me' shit weren't enough. I just found this out:

Tara Hunt, founder of Citizen Media, inventor of Pinko Marketing...is karaoking her way across North America to move to Montreal

Reasons this makes me feel even more insecure then I feel already (and no offense meant to Tara, I think the tour sounds great!):

#/1 - Montreal?? Does she know something I don't? No, seriously, I am so conflicted about this move. I know for me, it's time, but when she says "I need a cheap place to write" I get a little worried for poor ( and I mean poor) little me with my sackful of ambition and empty pockets.

#2/She already wrote a book. Me="nada". That's all, she wrote a book, I haven't. What, do I need more? No, because I am BLEEDING.

#3/ She's karaoking during her move. I'll be lucky if I make it through this without getting disowned. The only song we're going to be singing is "Miriam why did you pack the heavy stuff into the big boxes." and "Miriam why did you label the boxes with what's in them and not the rooms they go in?" Organizationally speaking 'on the road' the only stop I can promise we'll be making is at the Wendy's so I can stuff my sad/angry/crampy face with a spicy chicken sandwich and a baked potato.

I am feeling defiantly average today, and if that mean's tomorrow I am trying to pack breakables in garbage bags full of my winter clothes I do not care!
