Not counting the beginning and end of each school year in college, I haven't moved very often in my life and never very far (about 180 miles total). Which is a good thing because each time I've had more and more junk to pack, transport, and unpack. The last time added all of my wife's stuff. The next time would include two kids' belongings also, except that I sincerely doubt we'll be going anywhere until they're out of the house and in college.

This week will be a very painless move as the old Trivia Why's blog at Blogstream completes its transition to the new and improved Trivia Why's blog at Blogger. Please update your bookmarks, and I'll see you there!
