Moving Update

I've neglected this blog for too long. So, here's a quickie just to catch up on the current state of my getaway.

My health seems OK. I still get stabbing pains on the right side of my chest when I over-exert myself. I'm not too worried. I still haven't paid my bills but I'm moving to Mexico anyway. They made $75,000 off of me, another $5000 shouldn't matter. I hope to quit my job Thankgiving week and be on the road by the first of December. I'll put my bags in storage when I get to Mexico city, then head for the beach for a month of decompression. I'll probably end up in Puerto Angel. No phone, no internet, no television, no computer. Just reading, swimming, and staring into the horizon.

When I return from my sabbatical I'll start looking for an apartment. Once I'm settled you're all invited for a visit. My usual email addresses will still be good and I even have a 415 phone number you can call to leave a message. If you want the number, just send me an email.

I still have lots of stuff I want to sell: computers, a scanner, a printer, a Canon 10D, sound equipment, videos, and lots more. I think I'll post everything on Craig's List when I get a chance. I'll add a link here.

In the sidebar to the right there is a link to what will hopefully be my podcast on Odeo. I'm able to upload audio files as well as call a local number and leave a message that gets uploaded to the site. The first "episode" of my podcast was posted with my cell phone. Cool! I won't bother to add new "episodes" unless I have something interesting to say. I hope to do a lot of recording in Mexico. Dreams!
