I took much ribbing from my family on the weekend once they learned that I hadn't begun packing. This led to even more teasing about my general tendency towards procrastination, accompanied by suggestions that I was probably going to hold off on the packing until midnight of the 30th. (Sadly, their concerns aren't entirely misplaced; I do have a longstanding habit of putting things off. At my grade eight graduation, one of our teachers said a few lines about each of us as we went up to collect our diplomas. When I went up, he did not comment on my excellent performance on the Gauss math contest or my fantastic French skills. Instead, he noted that I was the envy of my classmates because of my miraculous ability to start assignments five minutes before they were due and still get an A.) In order to prove my family wrong (and because I suspect they may have a point), I began packing yesterday. Of course, technically I don't have an apartment yet, so I may be packing the boxes just to leave them on the side of the road while Roommate and I check into the Sheraton.

Damn, and I missed it all...

I'm sure you'll get another opportunity. As much as I'd like to believe otherwise, it's unlikely that my habits will change substantially in the forseeable future.
