Well, that was fast.
Jun. 26th, 2006 12:34 pmI have an apartment. (Floorplan 1C.) It is ginormous, it is within walking distance of work and of a Safeway, it has a washer and dryer, and it is costing me only one arm and leg. Downsides include that it's on the first floor, the washer and dryer are "portable" (the washer wheels over to the sink for its water hookup), and I can't get in 'til the fifteenth. So, an extra week of living with my parents and having a real commute to work. These things happen.
Of course this means that Moving will occur that weekend. Probably Sunday the sixteenth, starting around eleven, for DC-area folks. (Come! Help! I'll feed you! Plus you get to curse my name as you haul thirty bankers' boxes of books from the truck to the apartment!)
(Genuine updates to come later today, as I have nothing to do this afternoon but sit around and write.)

Date: 2006-06-27 04:08 pm (UTC)you helped me a lot after all that happened.
*blush* Pishtosh. I listened and offered hugs, that's all. Well, and dinner at Zeppoli's, but everyone should have dinner at Zeppoli's once in a while. I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to get to know you better. Timing, and all that.
(I'm also sorry to hear about the end of the Eckerd job, except that I find it hard to mourn for anyone no longer working retail no matter what the circumstances. Best of luck, though.)

Date: 2006-06-28 07:47 am (UTC)You helped me a lot. All of the people I met at WaldenBooks did. If it wasn't for you guys I don't know what I would have done. I only wish I could help you move, or help at all. I'm sorry.
I wish I had had a chance to get to know you better, as well. If you ever find yourself around the Pittsburgh area, let me know - I'll return the dinner favor, and gladly. ^^
Heh, thanks. It's okay - I'll just have to find a better job, that's all. The local Borders Express is apparently hiring again, and the last time I was in there - when I still had a job, mind you - they practically begged me to apply... so. If nothing else, it'd pay better, and I'd get that lovely discount again! It's be something, at least.
Good luck with the move!
