Moving part 4

The beast (the bunny) has finally acclimated to her new environment.  She spent the first two days hiding under the bed and behind the toilet, but she's forgotten that she weighs only four pounds and is challenging  us over who's is in charge the new place.
In order to appease her, and keep her from nibble in the walls, furniture, and electrical cables I want to buy her a bunny maze, see the teensy image below.  Doesn't that look fun?  I bet she act like a cat and never use it, because she knows that it is for her...

Moving part 3

Two full nights we've spent in the new place.  And both times we could hear out neighbors fucking.  And I don't mean the occasional grunt or moan, and squeak of the bed, but the our neighbor lady screaming "Fuck me, aw yeah, oh harder!" And so forth.  We're wondering if are walls are really that thin or if they're really that loud.
Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of this, other than eventually running into them in the hall and trying not to giggle, is that they do this during the wee hours of the morn.  Like 3 or 4AM.  Either they stay up all night or get up at an obscene hour (tee-hee, double entendre).

Moving part 2

I've been trying (admittedly half-assed) to find the patron saint of moving, but no luck.  I've decided to go with St. Jude the patron saint of desperate situations, impossible causes, and lost causes.  Not that we're at the point in the moving process yet, but we'll there.

Here's the only way I like my saints to look, kitschy.

Now, somebody who believes in this stuff, pray to him for me!

Moving day!

Actually, it's sign the lease and get copies of the keys made day.  But still, yay!  Since moving will be a slow and painful process I intend to use the new place like a tree fort during my lunch breaks (that's right my new home is across the street from my job).  I figure that even with a lack of furniture and possessions for a while that I'll just sit on the floor with my iPod and those mini speakers M got for free.

Tomorrow's moving day! Part 1 of 20 something episodes

We get to sign the  lease for our new place tomorrow!  Which means we get keys!  Which means we've got access to our first grown-up place together.  Even though M's a grad student, and I'm busy in the process of putting off grad school, so technically we are moving as students, or semi-students.  But this is the first time we've moved without a pending school deadline...
And we're buying new furniture, instead of collecting the best items out of the Ikea "as-is-section" over the course of several years for the new place.  I'm so happy that we won't be going through a phase where we are forced to use pillows on the floor in lieu of actually seating!
