As I've said in the past, sometimes it's the small victories that help keep us sane.

The books are off the shelves, and I've taken down one set of them (the shelves, that is).  Packing continues apace, and tomorrow I go to seek out maps to use to continue planning the route of our trip back to California.

Today I read The Apple Way, which is an interesting quick read --  management maxims as seen through the lens of the history of Apple Computer.  It can be annoyingly simplifying at times, and gloss over details to get to a glib maxim, but the rest of it made sense to me, which made it worthwhile reading before I packed the last box of books.  :)

As for a not-so-small victory, it appears that my friend Sorebrek has been admitted to the GSB off the summer waitlist!  It couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy, in my book -- certainly not this late in the game.  It was also great to meet up with him again over the last couple of days as he came to Chicago to look for housing.  He seems to have found accomodations which meet his needs, which I can definitely attest is very important.
