all moved in

We got everything moved into my apartment on the 15th. It wasn’t too bad except for my Ikea Expedit series entertainment center, which just barely fit up the stairs. The apartment is looking kind of bare so far. The furniture that filled my bedroom in my parents house is now dispersed throughout a rather generous one bedroom apartment. This is more room than I have ever had, so I need to look into more furniture and wall decor! On the walls I will hang art prints such as the works of M.C. Escher or Salvadore Dali. Allposters.com seems to have good prices, and I can get cheap frames at Ikea.

On Friday I am picking up the new kitten, Smokey! I also can not wait until my girlfriend gets back from her family vacation!

i signed the lease!

Yesterday I signed the lease on my first apartment. Exciting stuff! I have already moved some stuff in, and we are going to move all of the furniture in on Saturday. Lots of work!

The apartment is really nice, and the neighborhood is soooo quiet. I do not have a yard, but I have a freaking park! Alum Springs Park actually, and it’s just beautiful. I think it will be a fine place to live :)

i love thrift stores

Thanks to the Saint Vincent DePaul thift store in Fredericksburg I now have a full living room set. I got a loveseat, two endtables, and a coffee table for $200! I wouldn’t have been able to afford stuff so nice if I bought it brand new.

moving soon!

Wow, I really must start posting here more often…

I’m moving into a nice one bedroom apartment outside of the City of Fredericksburg very soon. I’m very excited to get out of the B.F.E. I’ll be in an urban area with access to all of the modern amenities with plenty of shopping nearby. I’ll also be MUCH closer to the interstate!

There are some merits to living out in the middle of nowhere…but I would prefer to live in 2010, and not 1970.

BONUS POINTS!

I’m getting a kitten, and my girlfriend may be moving in with me for the summer.
