last day in nyc!
here's how today went:
we were up last night until like 4 am, packing and stuff, so we slept until almost 11 this morning. then we got up, went to target and bought cleaning supplies and low-carb snacks for the road, and i got chapstick. :) we came back home and attacked the apartment. i took pictures step-by-step, so at some point those will be available for observation (though probably on facebook only thanks to lj's annoying way of making you upload your pictures to a photo website first). we kind of just wandered around, going back and forth between cleaning and packing.
joe came over after work and helped, we ordered thai food and watched jeopardy, joe left around 9:30 or so, i think. by midnight we were pretty much done and worn out - both kind of just dazed out and watching roseanne. (i LOVE roseanne.) we have to pick up the car tomorrow morning at 9 and pack it up - then do a last quick sweep of the apartment and get out of here.
jared is keeping the apartment so we're leaving a lot of the furniture and kitchen stuff...that's really nice. it's a huge help. he hasn't been around this weekend really and i'm wondering if he's coming back tomorrow morning - or if we're not going to see him again?
tomorrow at starbucks they are giving away free food with a drink order until 10:30 am.
i got a voice mail from lisa at stanford about a temporary job - august 3rd through october 31st. hopefully we can get each other on the phone tomorrow and do a little phone interview. i think this would be amazing, i really would like to get a job as soon as possible. that would take a lot of stress off the first couple months.
i hate hardwood floors. i do not think they are better than carpet.
i do think that mr clean magic erasers are magic. i don't know how they work. but they do.
in 12 hours, we will be officially moved out. i can't believe we're finally going home!
