"The Boom Has Been Lowered"

I doubt anyone will get that reference, but it's appropriate nonetheless.

Remember how I said the roommate would be out sooner rather than later? Yeah. Well... apparently, I knew that a little too well. She was out, 100% this past Thursday. With the exception of smaller odds and ends, she's gone. She's coming over Tuesday to get the rest of her stuff, and to go with me to the storage unit to transfer it into her name, since we got all our stuff out saturday.

We'll see how it goes. Also, she is supposed to have our money this weekend, so hopefully nothing will go wrong with that.

Still, I can't shake the feeling that something's up. That there was more to the suddenness than there appears to be. See, originally, it was beginning of Feb, beginning of March. Then, last sunday she goes and has dinner with T & J, and the next day tells us, "oh, I'll be out by Thursday" after having told us originally that the reason it would be beginning of Feb at the earliest was because the room/s had to be cleaned, painted, etc, and they wouldn't be able to do that for a couple of weeks because shew as working on the weekends... Then all of a sudden she had dinner with them, and poof, she's gone by thursday? I'm not blind, or stupid. I KNOW SOMEthing happened down there. I just don't know what.

It's like a puzzle where all the pieces are all square, the same size, and the same color, but you know that two pieces go next to each other. You don't know HOW you know, but you just DO. It's almost aggravating. I can see pieces falling into place, but I don't know WHY they are where they are. There's no picture, no context. Completely irritating.

Not to mention an entire other world of drama that I am, for the next few months (at least) not at liberty to discuss yet.

On top of the husband (and like 15 others where he worked) being laid off on Thursday.

Yeah, it's been that kind of week.

The main saving grace, though, is that I have an interview on Monday. Wish me luck. Hopefully, something good will come of it. If not, well... I will keep trying.

Also, I have the material for the curtains in the purple room, as well as material for curtains in our room when we finally get around to cleaning and painting it.

Got the black ones for the office started, the office about 85-95% clean, and about half the stuff we brought back from storage actually put away. We're down to the box of christmas stuff, the box that is going to be "put away until we have kids" stuff, a box that is stuff that will have a home once we have shelves to display it all, and the rest is just stuff that we have to go through. Overall, I'm happy with what we've gotten accomplished.

Didn't make it to goodwill, but that is for tomorrow. Lots of books, tons of clothes, and some other stuff. Husband has the hatchback, so we'll be able to put pretty much all of it in the Bat. Unlike my car, where only some of it would fit.

Anyway, I think that's about all for now. Not much else I can think of to say. Sooo...

Night!
