So Pat and I are trying to figure out how to move back. Its turning out to be a lot more difficult to get out of Boulder than to get into it. That's why I'm sitting awake right now at 1:30am, instead of in bed where I should be. I'm worried about what the next few months holds.

We need a place to live. Ideally, we want to live in New Brunswick, or one of the surrounding towns. Ideally, we'd like to live with others we know. Problem is, everyone seems to already have living arrangements for the next year. Need to figure out if there are people out there who need roommates, and if those people would be ok with a cat -- because the cat is an absolute must.

We need to find a place to live so we can figure out the actual logistics of the move. Can't rent a truck or sign a contract without having an address on the other end. Really need to get a contract for a truck soon. Have to figure out where we'll be living also so that we know how much money we have to put towards the truck, after security dep and first month's rent.

Have to either get our current apartment subletted or stay until the lease is up. Staying has advantages, going has advantages -- most importantly that we want to be home.

Once we get moved back, we won't have any jobs. I'm sure we can pick something up relatively quick, but it'll be for minimum wage and no benefits. What will we do after that? Who knows?

So I can't sleep because of the bleakness. We have to figure out somewhere to go to, how to get there, and how to pay for it all. And I'm not entirely certain what the best way to do that is. I keep starting to get this stuff sorted out, but I get overwhelmed fairly quickly. Its a lot all at once, and I don't have much experience in making it more managable.

Blarg.

I need to sleep. Have work in the morning, early.

Just for the record: our friends (that's all of you) are awesome.
