Hello everyone! I moved into my new apartment yesterday so I now have internet again. I have to say, I love my new place. We have brand new carpet (or virgin carpet, as my roomie likes to say) a new stove, new dishwasher -- the works. It's bigger than some apartments, though smaller than some.
I love, love, love my room. It is a shrine to geekdom, but that fits me pretty well. Nice, big closet holds most of my junk, and the furniture my parents have been buying me over the years finally has a home. As soon as I can steal my roommate's camera, I'll post some pictures of it.
Of course, the first thing I got organized were my books. Some people would organize clothes first, or any number of things, but I had to have all my books in a row, so to speak, before I could get comfortable in my new home.
I really think I'm going to like it here.
Then, on the job front, I've had a few calls, and a friend of a friend who likes me enough that I might call him my friend, is going to put in a good word for me at the school to help me get a job there. All I know is that I need money to pay the rent. I'm think I'll soon be willing to take anything, but I prefer something a little less "hourly wages", and a little more "steady paycheck."
As for the guy I've been talking to... I have no clue what's going on there. But, I'm too excited about my new apartment to care too much. Besides, I have this really cute neighbor who plays the guitar...
So, hello everyone. I hope the month of May was good for you all. I have to go back to unpacking now. I've taken enough of a break, and our living room is anything but livable right now.

Hope you have fun setting it up...and hope you get to see the cute guitarist more often.
