Home, Sweet Home.
I've moved into the apartment, and finally got all the boxes unpacked and their contents stowed more or less where they belong. <^,^>
It's not a huge place, but it's big enough to be comfortable for me, and my drive to work is now 5 minutes; down from half an hour, or a full hour one-way from the Oklahoma house.
Gerry, my surviving partner (now my ex, I suppose) is working to get the house marketable and move himself back to the Oklahoma house with the dogs. I moved here to be closer to work; the rent and location were quite amenable. We're still on good terms and will keep in touch.
The apartment itself is comfortable and well-maintained; the living room is large enough to allow me to make use of a Kinect or (if I ever decide to get one) a Wii without risk of personal injury.
It's not really "home" to me yet, but it's getting there. I think I'm going to like being here.
