1. I've decided that I only write in this thing as an escape from doing other tasks. For example, I should be doing dishes right now, or at least reading for class. But I'm obviously not.
2. Chris and I have moved into our new apartment. When I say "moved in", I use that phrase loosely, as there are still boxes all over the place. They're mostly my clothes and junk that we can't figure out where to put yet. This apartment is nice, but there are a few things about it I don't like. Hey, who would I be if I didn't complain?
2a. Not enough electrical outlets. Not in the kitchen, not in the dining room/office, not in the bedroom. The kitchen is the annoying one though, we have to have the coffeemaker on the kitchen table.
2b. When will Chris and I get a covered parking spot? We're supposed to start getting one in September, but I'm sure my neighbors are hoping we don't know that.
2c. When the heck is trash day? We've been here a week and we still haven't figured that out. (sub note: I'd ask a neighbor about these last 2 questions, but we never see any. And I'd feel weird knocking on someone's door.)
That's actually it with my gripes. Hmph. Less than I thought.
3. I START GRAD SCHOOL TOMORROW!!!!! I am so nervous/scared. I know I'll probably be ok, but no more procrastinating. I am going to stay on top of my work this time!!!
Well, I have work today, and then I'm off to my (almost) nephew's birthday party. I'm going late because of work. Is it wrong that a small reason I'm going to this party is because there will be free food? It's a small part, but a perk nonetheless. I just hope there's food left by the time I get there.
