Here comes the freak-out
Aug. 29th, 2011 08:57 pmBacking up files to my external HD, because it's been a while since I did, and just in case anything goes wrong during the move. Which is, of course, my cue to start thinking about all the things that COULD go wrong.
Am I on schedule for packing? Am I behind? What's going to happen on Wednesday? How long will it take to move? How long will it take to clean up the room I'm leaving? OMG what if the movers break something???
EDIT: New motto, for this evening at least - it's okay to feel fear as long as you keep moving forward. (Just be sure to go to bed on time, so you can work. You can stay up all night tomorrow if you have to (though that is also not recommended).)
EDIT (8/30): A good part of the fear is the whole "you're just pretending to be an adult, and now the truth is going to come out" thing. Which... is the crazy talking. Mostly.
