Just an update..
On things so far...

The apartment is SLOWLY coming together. It's a nice place, but I'm still not convinced it's big enough. I let Lou talk me into bringing the rest of our stuff up here in the next couple of weeks instead of waiting til August when a townhome is available. We'll see if I regret it or not. LOL

Okay, being that I am from West Virginia (read: dark ages) I have never had high speed internet access available to me. One of the first things I did was call to have the cable and Road Runner installed.

Heh..if y'all thought I was an Internet junkie before...

I'm lovin' this high speed thing. I downloaded a 50mb file on 6 minutes, then deleted it. Didn't need the file, just wanted to test the download speed. LOL

Found a couple of jobs that I might apply for. Yeah, I know, I've already quit one job for another one and the ink isn't dry on my lease, but I am going to keep looking for a job that is ME. Haen't started this current one yet, but it can't hurt to keep looking ya know? Plus, I'm liking the fact that FINALLY I live in a place with a job market that enables you to job hop. That's something I've never experienced before.

Other than that, nothing is new. Taylor still isn't thrilled about being here, and I can't get her to venture out of the apartment other than to get the mail and make sure my car hasn't been towed.

Oh yeah...that's something sorta worth mentioning: Parking Round Robin...

We have assigned parking spaces. Mine is #138. Well, in the 10 days we have been here, I have been able to park in my space twice. 2 times! That's it. So, I have to park in someone else's space, and call the office and tell them that someone is parked in MY space. Of course, while that is being taken care of, the person whose spot I am parked in, calls the office and tattles on me. But they have also parked in someone else's space, and that person calls the office to tattle on the person who tattled on me.

This morning when I was taking Lou to work, there were 11 cars with tags on them. That's a whole lot of tattling. LOL The office manager says that she knows parking is a issue and is "looking into it" (Read: Just as soon as I am filing my nails and finish shopping on eBay, I might look into it..or I might just go home early, the Sopranos are on, ya know...").

Anyway, that's about it. Once I've started my new job and am in a real routine, I might get back to some real writing, provided I remember what that is. LOL

I'm off to do something "housewifeish-like". I should finish putting my kitchen together, or go make the bed. I also need to load the dishwasher and clean off the coffee table. Yes, yes...I have a hold lot of house stuff to do...and I'm going to get right on that.
