Moving Day (kinda)

progThe bad news is, the landlords won't be available until the end of next week, and they insist on meeting me before I can move in.
The good news is, Charles and Carla have offered to let me stay in the guest room until then. Cha's and I spoke today, and they expect my arrival sometime this evening.
Suddenly faced with the prospect of leaving Maine again, I am suprised to find a little internal resistance! But, it's just my usual inertia, backed up by a little nervousness, I suppose. I really do need to get this thing done. And: I'll be living (or at least guesting) in a house with broadband Internet again. Eeee! Now all we'll need is wireless.
I have yet to write about any of my silly Sims adventures here; I picked up that toy two Saturdays ago. I will mention that, as with any other gameworld that grabs me, I start to apply its metaphors into the real world, and so I imagine that living in a house with others will be good for me because it will keep my Social bar a healthy green. That's always the hardest thing to keep up for Sims who live alone.
This is assuming that I don't actually act like my Sims, and start beating up guests every time I catch one hugging a housemate. Twitchy little buggers.
Jim's response to my missing the meeting was "Eh, don' worry about it." Just like I told my worried parents it would be. I would never work for an employer who couldn't recognize an honest mistake.
