The new apartment is sweet and the complex we're in is really nice. The apartment has wall-to-wall carpeting, a sliding door off the living room that leads out to a modest balcony, and the complex has a pool and will soon have a fitness center in the club house next to the pool...and The Felon and I are gonna be allllllll up in that fitness center ( Read more... )

Later this afternoon I get to see the new dwelling for the first time. Woowoo!

I like rain. I enjoy a powerful storm with the lightning and the thunder and the windy wind and whatnot. I do not particularly enjoy the type of rain that we're getting right now. The type of rain that hangs around and makes the air damp and clingy and cold. The kind of rain that makes your bones ache. It started last night and hasn't really ( Read more... )

There is a woman who takes her kids to the park outside my bedroom window every day. For the duration of their playtime, the kids run around and squeal (like kids do, it's annoying, but I just blast some tunes or pop my earbuds on, problem solved). Their mother, on the other hand, spends the entire time they're at the park yelling at the kids. The ( Read more... )

I think it's quite telling that, to me, the most exciting part of moving is that I will have cable in my room. No more fiddling with the stupid rabbit ears to get reception! Also, the ALDS and ALCS are on TBS this year and I won't have to shuffle out to the living room. Well, we won't have the cable hooked up until the 6th (and there's no furniture ( Read more... )

I think I have a dust hangover. Is that even possible? And can I get a Swiffer up in here?!

Eleven boxes. Eleven. Boxes. ELEVENBOXES! Of books! Eight midsized boxes and three small boxes. Eleven boxes of books. Jesus Christmas. I'm going to bed.

Note to self:

Make sure to cover your beverage before you send dust bunnies flying around the general vicinity of that beverage. *coughsneezecough*

Question to self:

What the hell do you own such heavy things?!?!?! GAH!

My kingdom for a dolly or a hand truck or a skateboard or some-fucking-thing on wheels! BLERG!

I learned something tonight: a box of CDs is heavier than a box of DVDs. I hypothesize that it is the packaging that makes the difference. I've also learned that I have a GD lot of CDs and DVDs, but the amount of CDs and DVDs that I own, put together, does not equal the amount of books that I have (even after I went through the five totes that were ( Read more... )

I could collapse into a heap right now, but I think I'll just drag my ass all day in anticipation of the fact that I'm probably going to fall asleep really quickly when I go to bed tonightsometime early tomorrow morning. I didn't get to sleep until much later than my usual 2am bed time and then I had the cat with me so the junk haulers wouldn't let ( Read more... )
