Just a very quick heads up that:

1) application bureaucracy is almost all done except for certifying my goddamn Dutch documents
2) funding bureaucracy is nowhere near done
3) the packing people will be here Friday 20-Monday 23 which means I am going to die
4) I still don't know where I'm going to go once I leave Rome, or when exactly.

But really the main thing is THE PACKING PEOPLE ARE COMING.

And now, if you'll excuse me, I have to throw everything I own away. Yays.

OH CRAP... DESTROY ALL THE THINGS!

Supporting hugs from across the pond, my dear. I wish I could help...

But not all the things! *exhausted cuddles* My room is currently a battlefield strewn with mountains of papers and boxes and garbage bags. *flops to the floor and gets stabbed by paperclips and CD cases* Your supporting hugs are very much appreciated, as always.

Also it looks like I might have to physically go to the Netherlands to get my university papers' photocopies certified which augh.

Also yes I owe you an email and it will be done. Soon.

Ugh, moving and packing. Easily two of my least favorite things to do ever. Here are a few more supporting hugs to get you over Hump Day. Hee hee, hump.

No worries about the email; I can see very clearly that you have slightly more important things to worry about at this moment. You will get to it when you're ready ant it will be awesome and then maybe more hugs.

(Sucky about having to go to the Netherlands just to make a photocopy, but it emphasizes one of the minor cool points of Europe: "Oh, I guess I'll just go off to the Netherlands for a spot and then come back home and it'll be ok because it and 43 other countries are just around the corner, toodle pip!")

...you probably didn't say "toodle pip", however.

I don't think I've ever said "toodle pip". I might've gone for "tally ho" though.

And good news! I won't have to go to the Netherlands after all! After three emails and phone calls to three offices, I finally got routed to the person in charge of my department's grades. Matter solved in 0.5 seconds and the copies will be waiting for me in Spain. Whoot! \o/

Yay, hugs for hump day /o/ *huggles* Hope your week's going well.

Right. That did not say "humps for hug day." Hump Day is a metaphor. A METAPHOR!

Ok, so new plan of action: I might miss you in Kiwiland this time, but once you're there and set and awesome and things, you can meet me in Japan for my next work trip. See? Solutions! Sure, you're going to tell me "Uh, Japan is far away maybe?" but I will pish-posh your objections and note that it's the same ocean so it should be a quickie flight up, wot wot.

Toodle pip! Colliwobbles!

METAPHORS NEED LOVE TOO!

...man, I wish we had Hug Day. Hugs for everyone! And Special Hugs for special people *eyebrow waggle*

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we'll miss each other in Down Underer, which is a damn shame. On the other hand, you don't have to worry about me pish-poshing Japan - I'm so there. Provided I have such silly things like monies and time.

One day! We will be in the same geographic location! *shakes fist at the sky*

Hug Day would be awesome. I was in some city once and a few people were standing around offering free hugs. I took a hug, because hey, free hugs. Special Hugs have to be saved for the right people, though. SPEEEEEECIAL!

Japan is the way! BANZAI! Remember that monies can be easily acquired by selling other people's organs to open-minded individuals. Just... throwing ideas out there.

We're going to owe each other so many drinks by the time we meet up that we're just going to kill ourselves in a boozy stupor within an hour of meeting. BUT WHAT A GLORIOUS END IT WILL BE!
