Despite some troubles we've been having, it seems like it all disappears when the prospect of moving out on our own becomes less of a dream and more of a reality. A couple undergoes undue stress when living with in-laws, and starting out right after marriage doing so might or might not invite more stress into a marriage than to have to do so later in life, but we're not ever going to find out. It's enough stress right now, and that's all we need to know.

Holly and I spoke to the landlord at the apartment complex where Holly's brother, Isaac, lives with his family. We talked about "move-in specials" and the like, and Sekora(Secora?(Seckorhra?)) the landlady told us that whatever aparment we choose, of the three available, will be held for us. We're going to turn in our application and tell her we'd like to move in on December 1st, 2055. We both know it's a long time off, but that gives us time to get stuff in order....

....haaaaaaahaha! Right. Weez be outta here by December 1st. We've found an amazing living room set at one of those furniture liquidators, like American Freight, but it's called "*insert correct word here* Freight". I can't be expected to keep track of all of this stuff. Holly's parents, Steven and his wife Carol, are getting us the set(which is extraordinarily well priced and they still might get a $100 off that price) for our Christmas and my birthday present(which fall within' five days of each other). It comes with a couch and love seat, both a nice green color. Also pillows, two espresso(if I ever hear you refer to said color or drink as 'expresso', prepare for the oncoming of.....le slap) colored end tables with a very nice coffee table of the same color, and two Daniel lamps. I don't know if spouting off a name brand to you in regards to lamps impresses you, but I'm taking a shot. Our living room is looking to be awesome.

So with that living room set, and all the kitchen stuff we got for our reception, all we're in need of is getting stuff for our bathroom. We're gonna have a theme in the bathroom of course. We're going to look at a bunch of themes at Target and online and just get err'thang to go with that theme.
Considering I only care a little about what my toothbrush holder looks like, I'm gonna let Holly take care of the restroom to her liking. I do have an opinion about the shower curtain, but since when does a man's opinion matter in a marriage? "Gee, uh, I dunno, Eric, maybe since RIGHT NOW?".......

....negative.

Holly can go nuts in designing this place, really. I trust her sense of style completely, and I know that even though I may think that the bright yellow plaid pillows go well with the espresso side tables, I know Holly's right when she says, "Eric....................just, no."

Farewell!

moving, holly, at work
