Moved
The move is over. I am in the new place now. Actually I am at work. There is no internet connectivity at the new apartment. Hopefully that will be rectified today at some point.
I ended up calling in sick to work yesterday. Sunday was about the most draining day ever, and I just didn’t have the energy to get up and go to work. This was good, because I slept in a bit, then spent the day organizing, putting together furniture, unpacking, and buying things that I need. Man, I am so sick of Target. I keep having to go back there, because I forgot “one last thing.”
Still left to do:
* Finish putting together the stupid Ikea Kitchen Cart thing. Those Swedes were too clever by, well, a bunch, when they designed this thing. Their idea of how the top should attach to the legs is just insane. I was tempted last night to throw it in the back of the Forester, drive to EPA and say “What the heck is this? Who thought that this way of fastening parts was reasonable. (I’d explain it, but, well, let’s just say that it is better left to your imagination.)
* Finish unpacking – Everything save for some clothes, books, cds and dvds. On target for tonight is the kitchen stuff. Also the computer stuff, since I should have my DSL hooked up today
* Organize – while the media/books are almost all unpacked and shelved, they are very haphazard now.
* Clean – The whole place will need a good vacuuming. Thankfully, I had a 20% Bed Bath and Beyond coupon to help towards the purchase of a fancy new vacuum cleaner!
* Use the fireplace – because I have one and can. Assuming I go out and buy some Duraflame logs. I already bought some fireplace matches!
