Hey, kids! I'm up in Burbank as I type this, in my new home. It's nice. It's like a new pair of shoes. I'm still kinda breaking 'em in. Afterall, I've only been here a day.
The move was painful. The drive was long. And wouldn't ya know it, the only traffic I encountered was in San Diego! But still, the 4 hours of sleep I had gotten did not make for an easy drive.
I got here at about 11:20am. My furniture was supposed to be delivered between noon and 3pm. To my surprise, the dudes showed up at noon, on the dot! To their surprise, they had to lift many heavy pieces of furniture, up many flights of stairs. I apologized. The furniture fit pretty snugly. Let's just say, it looks great, but stubbed toes are to be expected.
Then there was the unpacking of my car...
Remember those stairs I mentioned?
Yeah, I had to take all my stuff up those too. Add to that, we're in the middle townhouse. Add to that, I am not what they call "in shape". Add to that, it was humid.
What does that all equal?
Kickin' my ass.
It was tough, kids, I'm not gonna lie. I haven't sweated that much in a long time. I had a lot of shit to carry and unpack, including 3 whole boxes filled with DVDs. It was nuts but I actually feel okay today.
After all the boxes were in my room, I loaded my big ass into the shower. It was nice, once I figured out how the shower worked.
All the boxes are pretty much unpacked now and I feel pretty much at home. I went grocery shopping today. That was odd. I got the essentials. You know, cheese, pb and j, bread, pringles, soda (RC and Cactus Cooler, I was feeling interesting), and snapple.
I also stopped by Best Buy and picked up the new Jimmy Eat World CD, "Chase This Light". I've already listened to it twice. A bummer is that the CD came with an exclusive free download track, and I downloaded it, but it doesn't work for Macs. Bollocks, for my limey friends.
So here I sit in an L.A. suburb... It's crazy. But it's where I'm at. Where you at?
:-P Pbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbth!!!
