Plan for Benjamin Bradley

by Benjamin Bradley · 08/09/2004 (12:25 pm) · 10 comments

With all the craziness that went on in the last .plan, I thought nothing more would go wrong. I should have knocked on luckier wood that what I knocked on because the saga continues.

I went to go pick up my 6x12 trailer that will have no problem carrying most of our stuff. We were then told that our truck would be unable to pull that size trailer. (They seem to forget that they told me just a few days ago that it would be fine.) So they have set me up with a 5x8 trailer. Not only will our stuff be bursting at the seams, but I've had to build a massive cage on the back of my pickup. My pickup used to have a clearance of less than 6 feet, now with all the extra stuff packed into bed of my pickup we have a clearance of around 10 feet. (I'll have to watch that crazy McDonald drive through so I don't take off the top half of my boxes.)

Anyway, my wife and I will be arriving in Eugene, Oregon in a few days to start my new job. I will be joining GarageGames to focus on public relations. So I'm sure that I'll get to know many of you much more over the coming weeks and months.

I'm off and I'll check in with everyone when I find good Internet connections during our 3500 mile trek across the good old US of A.

Good luck on your journey; I read your previous post and I'm sure you'll look back on it in the coming months and laugh about it!

All the best,

Sounds like things are finally shaping up, but sometimes it seems to never end, ay? Hope no other troubles befall you guys on your way out. It'll be great to have you here once you arrive. :D

Have to keep Benjamin out of IRC i see. I forgot to ask Benjamin if he'd plugged GG in his interview on NBC Miami... having another marketing team member will be amazing. Better to pimp all the games coming from 'the Garage.'

...and in regards to all of your moving woes: "If life were perfect, it would be boring."
