Reloaction Catch-22

We are less than a month away from our moving date (June 13th). By this date next month we will have been in Austin for several days and our stuff should be arriving on the moving truck. I am excited, anxious, and scared all at the same time.

Katie and I are both furiously looking for jobs. I think we both harbored the rather naive idea that I would get a job much sooner than this. Of course, most business don’t hire several months in advance of their job openings. This is where the paradox comes in. We really need at least one of us to have a job start as soon as we get down there. In order to get a job, we need to be there to do interviews, second interviews, etc. So, we need the job to get there and we need to be there to get a job. My mind gets all twisted just thinking about it. I am hopeful something exciting will happen in the next few weeks.

This is amounting to a very stressful move. I’m sure that when my parents had to do this it was just as stressful, but they always made it seem so easy.
