I found some Jersey City people on the craigslist, and I am moving in with them. In... five days. Fortunately I was already semi-packed, so this week won't be QUITE as insane as it could be. Friday my mom is coming to visit, and this weekend will be full of celebrations for my birthday. And unpacking ( Read more... )

It's official, I'm moving to New Jersey in a month. I'm going to move in with Luca and her two very fat cats. Her place is a one bedroom; I'd get the bedroom, and she'll have the livingroom (entirely her idea, I swear!). Anyway, I think we'll manage to not kill each other. Kelly and Chris are literally around the corner. All my JC friends are " ( Read more... )

So, Kelly is moving in with Chris, which I had figured would be inevitable pretty much as soon as they started dating, since he has a swanky condo full of video games and baked goods. This leaves me with a myriad of options. I could try to find someone on Craigslist to move in and sign a new lease. I could try to find someone to live with ( Read more... )

Saturday was Single's Awareness Day (and also my first Valentines as a non-single since fricking high school) and was spent in proper SAD fashion- with friends. And food. So much food. David had fancy steaks waiting at his place for romantic steak-filled valentine's dinner, but I was so painfully full of Death Breakfast and Torrico's that they had ( Read more... )

So, it is the new year! Hurrah! I feel like I should resolve to do things. Last year I decided I should Stop Being an Antisocial Introvert, so I started my tiny knitting group (if two can be called a group) which is still successfully happening pretty much every week (just not tonight because I'm sick and lame). This year I'm contemplating Getting ( Read more... )

Thanksgiving was epic this year. First, hours of slaving over a hot stove (with mimosas) at Carly and Mike's, then so much feasting. I made cranberry sauce and amazingly delicious fried sweet potatoes and acorn squash stuffed with couscous and only slightly disappointing turkeyless stuffing. Once I could move again after eating all that plus ( Read more... )

I have Veteran's Day off, so I took off Monday too. Four day weekend! Then two day weekend, then another four day weekend ( Read more... )

That was an insane month. I think things have calmed down a bit. Here is EVERYTHING in review, by subject:

Bedbug incident: It's been a few weeks since the beginning. I threw out my rug and half my yarn and fabric, and put most of my belongings in bins (some of which are duct-taped shut for extra security) and my room generally looks as though I ( Read more... )

So I was going to write something about how I seem to have spontaneously generated a boyfriend and how awesome and possibly a little bit insane that is, but now I think I have bedbugs so I'm just going to write OMG FUCKING BEDBUGS instead.

In no particular order, things I need/want to do in the next 7 days ( Read more... )
