Is it my last week?

This might be my last week here. Not quite sure yet. We'll see if my Visa clears by Weds.

I read Getting Past OK -- some random book about a guy who found his way to ultimate happiness. I can't seem to remember who referred me to this damned book. Then I started reading my 800page ABS/MBS book which is a sleeper. I knew I would not finish this, so I instead did the ultimate sin and went to Barnes & Nobles and bought Liars Poker at full retail price. (The sin is to pay full retail price for a book). I was desperate.. I was in SoCal and needed to read. Plus it was good background reading into the business I am getting into. I also picked up Traders, Guns and Money, more background reading on what it is like to work at an investment bank.

Liars Poker was a pretty good read. Ended without a bang, but was quite useful for me as research. Getting an idea of what traders and salespeople/marketers really do was bugging the hell out of me.

So in my final week.. I ponder, with some compunction about my move, but mostly with anxiety and anxiousness of really going thru with it. I guess this is like a wedding -- maybe KK has some serious anxiety as well? I sure would if I were him!!

Anyways my main task at this point is to separate my goods into the categories:
- Air Ship
- Sea Ship
- Carry-On
- Throwaway/giveaway

I have mostly been procrastinating. The book I read had several tips on fighting procrastination... but alas, its just a book not a bible.
