CLOSING TIME

Well, the condo is empty except for an air mattress, my suit case, laptop, Nyx's Sherpa Bag (pet carrier), and uniform/equipment items to be turned in tomorrow.

Nyx at least likes sleeping in her carrier. I refused to let them put her underneath, so she's coming with me as carry on. I've seen those 20/20 episodes where they mistreat your animals when you send them riding in the belly. I heard it gets cold under there too. Fuck that! Not my baby. The extra $$$ is worth it, and I think Selene can get it reimbursed anyway.

In about two hours, I'll be getting my send off at the local FOP pool hall. At least my flight isn't until Saturday night. I will definitely need a day or two for recovery. If I get the urge, maybe I'll try some drunk posting later. Otherwise, it's goodbye until I'm settled out west.

Ya'll behave, and I'll be back in a week or two.

Have fun! And I can't imagine putting a pet in some luggage area or wherever they put them. That's terrifying! Nyx is too high class for that anyway.
