mike and i had our six-month lunarversary on friday! he was away at a conference for the whole week, though, so we're going to celebrate a bit this afternoon.
i continue to clean my apartment, which still looks like a small tornado hit it. i'm sorting through boxes from the move and throwing away half of everything because it's crap and i don't need it --- things like lecture notes, old essays, homeworks, receipts from 2003-2005 that i meant to file but never did. on the other hand, i'm slowly acquiring the furniture i need. i finally got a sofa and a table for my tv, and i found the most wonderful lamps for my living room!! i <3 target, and i <3 <3 <3 costco. who knew costco sold livingroom furniture? the discount on furniture alone is worth the membership, not to mention those delicious chicken bakes!
i haven't been able to sleep for the last few nights. thursday night i was up until 3am, friday night 5am, and last night i didn't get to bed until 8am. i only slept five hours. i hope i have enough energy for tonight; i'm hanging out with my brother and it's an hour drive each way to see him.
i miss cooking, as i haven't done any real cooking in months. at the same time, i've been putting so much time and energy into figuring out my new world (job, 401(k), furniture, interior decorating) that i haven't had much left for cooking. i hope that within the week i'll be settled in and free of boxes in my livingroom.
i'm reading harry potter. i needed something to read before bedtime, and i need light reading so my brain doesn't combust from thinking too hard. i have to think a lot at work. it hurts. i'm on the second book now. yay me, finally getting on the bandwagon some five years after everyone else.
