Guess who got a $1/hour raise yesterday! Nono, go ahead, I’ll wait *plays Jeopardy music* January was apparently our best month on record, so I’m not incredibly surprised that the raise came now. I’ve been here for almost a year and a half, and other than the occasional nerve-wrecking period, it’s been fantastic. Hopefully the rest of this year is great too. It’d be nice to end up with a big Christmas bonus to match my…
The move to the new place is slowly drawing to a close. All but a handfull of my stuff is out of the old place, and we’ve started the cleaning process. Bedroom and bath got done last night, and tonight the main living area will be cleared out and vacuumed. Depending on how long that takes, I may go ahead and start on the kitchen.
I’m loving the new place. The paint in the living/dining room…
Been a little while. Things are still going well. The new place is coming along nicely. Lankylad and I painted the living room/dining area last weekend, and it looks great.

In other news, I’m hoping to be able to pick up my new keys this afternoon or tomorrow. My leasing agent is going to walk the apartment sometime today and give me a call to let me know if it’s ready *crosses fingers*
I’d really like…
This is the floorplan of my new place:
The raised dining area is a little weird, but I’ll make due ;) I really like the layout though; it’s nice and open. Though I suppose you’re gonna get that with 900 square feet and only one bedroom :)
So some actual content finally, though I’m still working on transferring old stuff over from my livejournal. Our current lease is up August 24th (or thereabouts), and both the roommates I currently have will be getting new places. I’ve been ridiculously excited about getting my a place all to myself for the first time EVAR! I’ve spent the last…what? couple months, at this point, I think, searching high and low for a new place to…
