kc_phil Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 and i'm waiting...and waiting... going bonkers waiting for my house to sell....waiting for employment negotiations...waiting for the stars to be in alignment so i can finally get the heck out of here...my feet are itching! I feel like i am sitting in a bus station, and the sign has all the destinations posted but there is no departure time next to any of them... Any of y'all care to share how you got through those last days before you left home indefinitely? this waiting is driving me bonkers! tick tock tick tock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuestHouse Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Just don't take it out on the bus driver, or burn the bus, incase you need to go back some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfessorFart Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Go away for a few days with the person you may miss the most when you are gone e.g best mate, mother, sibling etc. Choose somewhere close to home incase you need to head back to cross any T's or dot any I's. Pick a place where you've never been but always wanted to go. Pamper yourself. Book into a nice hotel, relax, eat all of the food you'll miss the most and make plans for the rest of your life.

Scott Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Is that "Me and You and a dog named Boo"? Best of luck, there is no magic formula, just try to keep your cool and relax as best you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kc_phil Posted July 7, 2006 Author Share Posted July 7, 2006 Where are to going to/From? involved in some painfully slow negotiations for a position in Singapore....I have a feeling i will be making good friends with the people at Tiger Airways. I am grateful...there are indeed worse forms of discomfort one could suffer from...like being stuck in the snowy rockies with wet socks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
