My birdcage didn't survive the trip either...
So. Here I am sitting on the floor of my new apartment, my laptop sitting on a box in front of me while I use my neighbor's wireless to update you all on my progress.
First of all, apartment! <3 Oddly enough I remember it being a little bigger on the tour (and it may have well been) but it's still big enough for my things so all is well. joiless would probably enjoy my apartment right now seeing as it's sitting around 60-something degrees. But I have to have the fan on to air out the paint smell that's been lingering.
My POD was delivered today, about an hour and a half earlier than I was expecting. The email I got said to expect delivery between 8:45 and 11:45am. Since I was staying the night at Ka-san's, I had planned on waking up at seven and heading over here with my things. Y'know, so I'd be ready when they got here.
WRONG.
I got a call a few minutes before seven saying they were about fifteen minutes away from my apartment and would be there shortly. Considering Ka-san's place is about a twenty minute drive from my apartment, I was unsurprisingly rushed. Long story short, my stuff is here and it has become apparent to me that I cannot unpack by myself. Perhaps I can wrangle a few people later in the day to help me--and hopefully the sky has stopped spitting long enough that we can do it without getting mired with drizzle.
Also, broken lampshade. :(
