The trip I made to Charlotte with Wil and Denise has paid off.
An update on the job: I start November 1. Party this week, bust ass following that. #fb

Wil getting this job is incredibly awesome. I’m excited for Wil and Denise, and I’m sad at the same time because they’re leaving and so Augusta is going to become a lot less fun. But I’ll move away from here quicker than at some nebulous point in the future, and the next move I make is going to be to a place that has a working public transportation system and all the other amenities that spell independence for blind people. It’s not that good things haven’t happened for me in Augusta. Lots of great things have. And Augusta has been a stepping stone for me that has produced some very valuable results. But I never intended for Augusta to be my permanent home. I’ve had a lot of good times with Wil and Denise and the puppies, and it’s been nice to know that I could hang out with them on a regular basis. But I’m also curious to see how life evolves once they’ve moved on to much better things. And it will definitely be better for them, I can feel it. And better for me too. So good luck, Wil and Denise, and I’m looking forward to the returning independence you’ll experience. -

I finally found the Fitbit. It ended up under the set of shelves that sits beside my bed. I must have unvelcrowed the band in my sleep. Yeah, definitely a restless night. It felt weird not wearing it yesterday. I’ve worn it almost constantly ever since I got it. I never got as attached to either my Basis band or my ActiveLink. The Fitbit has been one of the best investments I’ve made, and I’m thinking of also getting the scale to go with it. That should make my assimilation complete.

As I was getting ready to go to bed last night, I put my Fitbit sleep band on and shoved the Fitbit in, and then put it in sleep mode. So far, so good. Then I woke up this morning. Fitbit and band have disappeared. They’re probably under the covers somewhere, but I have no idea where at this point. I need a Find my Fitbit app to help in these situations. That way, when I sluff my sleep band off at night, I can find it again in the morning.

It feels so great when my nails are clipped. I’m going to regret this later when I try to open a can of beer.

I find it ironic that, on a holiday that celebrates the contribution of workers, and that is supposed to be an extra day of rest and enjoyment for those workers, most of the aforementioned workers are … working. At least the ones I know. Happy Labor Day everybody, and if you happen to have the day off, enjoy yourselves.
