• Another installment from the apartment diaries. 

  New Apartment:  Day 2 
  (Tuesday, August 23)

   

  It was a quiet night
  last night.  After I got home (yep, I got
  a shower curtain!), I actually sat down and read a bit of my book (Nora
  Roberts.)  ((shut up . . I know)) 

  One definite weird
  thing  . . . . there is a man in my
  freezer.   

  Yep. 

   

  *lol*  I dunno what it is, pipes in the fridge or
  something . .. but it sounds like there’s a man, inside the freezer saying
  “heeeyy”  and/or “hello?” 

   

  SO.  WEIRD. 
  

   

  I’m sure I’ll get used
  to it.  

   

  I still have boxes and
  crap everywhere.  I had to go back to the
  folks house today to get the kitters.  I
  didn’t want her bouncing around during all the furniture moving, so it was much
  easier this way.  Everything was already
  set up for her when she got here.  She
  freaked a bit when she got here . . . did about 3 rounds around the apartment .
  . smelling and whatnot.  She’s currently
  sitting on one of the shelves on my desk (which, just like everything else, is
  still empty.)   I may leave it that way .
  . . she might enjoy it there.  (I’m such
  a pushover.)

   

  I still have no food
  (except for a monstrous load of cat food) *lol* 
  A few more boxes have been unpacked . .. but I’m still in disarray. 

   

  I finally pulled all my
  dishes out though.  Had to put them
  directly into the dishwasher . . . 2 years of storage builds up all sorts of
  funk on them.    bleck. 
  But they are all now piping hot and clean (yay dishwasher!) 

   

  My arms are pretty sore
  .  . but I’m not surprised . . I did most
  of the heavy lifting yesterday.  But
  otherwise, I feel pretty good . . so that’s a good deal. 

   

  Meh . .. I can’t decide
  where to put my ‘kitchen table.’ 

  I have a small apartment
  . . .it has 1 bedroom (with walk in closet), 1 bathroom (with washer and dryer
  IN the closet . . .therefore erasing any sort of storage in there.), one small
  living room, a “dinette” . . which is becoming my ‘office’ of sorts . . . and then
  my kitchen (and a small entry way.)  I’m
  probably going to put the table in the ‘office’ as well . . . I just have to
  figure out how I want to do it. 

   

  Don’t worry, as SOON as
  I get internet service, I’ll be posting pictures!  (as soon as my apartment is clean of course.
  Hehe) 

   

  Ok . . I’m beat.  Hopefully by tomorrow or Thursday, I’ll have
  a hookup, so I can see how you all are doing. 
  Take care!  I’ll check in tomorrow.  J

  PS – the bed is amazingly fantastic, and I recommend
  them highly.  All I need now is a bed
  frame so I’m not sleeping 4 inches off the ground. *lol* 

   

  *poof*
