I've been at work today, mostly finalizing plans to attend the San Diego conference and get reimbursed for this "premove" trip as well as the actual moving expenses. We're racking up big bucks on the credit card with last minute airfares and giant ferry fees. So the quicker we can get reimbursed for these the better!

It's overcast in Anchorage today. So it feels just as good to be sitting in the office. There's no pining to be outdoors at this point. I'd say the temps are in the low 60s.

From my office (cubicle) I have a view of the Cook Inlet which leads out to the Pacific Ocean. Due to lots of earthquakes, most structures in Anchorage are not very tall. But our building does have 19 floors. I'm on the 6th floor. And I've been told that the building is on rollers of some sort so that it actually sways with any tremors to prevent collapse. That's a load off my mind, let me just say. :o)
