Moving Day

Today is the day I started my move from my old crappy apartment to my new, considerably less crappy apartment. The furniture has been transported (what little of it I took with me), the cable arrives tomorrow, and DSL in a week. The rest of my massive stockpile of junk will be going over intermittently in small boxes, as time allows.

The day started out smoothly enough, but quickly turned into a disaster. I was trapped in the new apartment from 3 until 5 waiting for the cable guy, and I soon realized that the building hadn't turned on my heat or hot water. The cable guy never showed, so I made a quick run to Target for some housewarming gifts. Then things started looking up. When I get back, I had heat, I had hot water, and 15 minutes later, I had a cable guy at the door. It turned out that my cable jacks hadn't been connected to anything so I still don't have cable, but as they say in the song, two out of three ain't bad. Cable Guy comes again tomorrow, though, to hook everything up, and as long as I'm online in time to see Alias, it's all good.
