last this, last that

I'm late this morning because I was - ta-da! - making my last trip to the laundromat! Whoo-hoo!!!

We are kicking butt on the packing, zooming right along. Check out that countdown. This time next week, I'll be making coffee in Port Credit.

  1. Just remember when you're making that coffee, the water'll boil at 100, not 212. ;)

  2. The heat is gone, just in time for your arrival.

    Yeah! I'm looking forward to a cool breeze off the lake.

    LOL So much to learn... :)

  3. Port Credit is a nice little community - part of Mississauga, but at the same time, an autonomous entity, older, separate from the sprawl.

  4. That's one of many reasons we wanted to live there. More frequent GO service and proximity to downtown were some others.

  5. Wow, it's really amazing. I've been visiting your blog since May, I think, when all this was still kind of off in the distance somewhere. But I look at your clock now and see four days. I can't imagine what that's like; to have the fact of leaving the country you grew up in and lived in your whole life staring you in the face like that. No matter how much you're looking forward to the change and the better social fit, that's still got to be an awesome prospect. Here's hoping it goes well for you when you actually pull the rip cord. :)

    Amazing to reflect on the idea that you'll be blogging to us domestically this time next week.

    It's almost surreal. That's the only way I can describe it. It doesn't feel quite real.

    Thank you so much.

    Rogers Cable willing. ;-)

    You know, in a weird way, I bet you'd have a more concrete sense of it if you were moving to a country like Japan or India, instead of to what amounts to some Twilight Zone version of the US where the American Revolution never happened and the Queen is still on the money (dun-dun-DUHHHH!!!). Let's face it, you're making the least-profound international move possible for an American. :) There'll be some changes when you're actually here, but I speculate that the similarity of culture and daily life is going to drag out the process of it really setting in for a long time.

  8. P.S.: Hey, have you given any thought about changing the name of your blog after the move? "We MOVED to Canada" springs to mind, but it's kind of obvious. I was thinking, how about something like "The Late-Late-Loyalist Show"? ;)

  9. yet the culture - for all the similarities we love to point out - is really very, very similar

    Um, that was supposed to say "for all the differences we love to point out".
