Time for Travel

Two exciting things...

First, I am notoriously bad about hanging anything on my walls...I don't know what it is but for a bunch of the different places that I have lived it takes me about a year to hang pictures on my walls. I guess because I am so used to them not being permanent so I never get too accustomed to the places I live. But yesterday I actually hung up my diploma's and some pictures. How cool is that and I did it in less than a month of living there. :) I mean that must be a record for me.

Second, I am traveling to Havelock, NC tomorrow for work....it will be 58 degrees there on Friday... I feel like I should pack shorts or something. I am barely wearing my coat here because it is not nearly cold enough for me. I guess that I got used to the bitter bit of the cold up in NY and I came back here and it has been nothing this winter. So now I don't think that I should even bother taking my coat. And the cool part is that I am not leaving to go to Havelock until the afternoon so I get to sleep in...I will probably be caught in traffic the whole way down...but oh well. I guess I will live...maybe. :)

I'm a slacker

Ok so I have been slacking. I got nagged by someone, who will remain nameless, so I am posting. I got really busy at work and then I get home and I am so exhausted that I haven't made much of an effort to do anything other than get home and collapse. I don't know why it was different over the summer. Although it could have been that I was staying at my aunts and she would make dinner most nights. So I guess that maybe the difference. I feel like literally all I do is work, eat and sleep. I catch up on other things over the weekend like grocery shopping when everyone and their sister is doing it at the same time and I feel like I spend hours waiting in line.

I think that I slept all day sat. with a few sporadic wakeful moments. It was the best day yet I have so much to get done on the weekends. Like I don't know cleaning and laundry. -sigh- But at least I got somethings done on Sunday. And I was supposed to travel this week but it got postponed thank goodness. I just didn't have the energy for it. Hopefully I will for the following week.

Oh....I didn't tell you the best part. It snowed on Sunday. It was the light fluffy stuff, well at least the stuff that I watched fall. When I went out to clean my car this morning I had to break the snow off of my car. But it was still nice to stand outside in the snow for a little while. I didn't think that we were ever going to get any.

And maybe I will be better about posting but whose to say. :)

I am still alive.

Ok I have made it to MD. I managed to get everything here and basically in one piece. I moved into my apartment on Friday. I even have some stuff unpacked, so that is good. We came down from Albany on Thursday but we go here to late to move into the apartment that day. So we went over to the apartment on Friday morning and I signed all of the papers. The apartment is huge. I went from a studio to a 920 sq. ft. apartment. So I have all of this space. And best of all I have a door to my bedroom instead of a big open room. YAY!!!!!!!!

I have already had problems with getting a phone a phone though. It was supposed to be set up on the Friday that I moved in and I even saw the verizon truck there and i went in and hooked up my phone and there was no dial tone. I was so mad and could I call verizon and tell them that. Noooo I didn't have a phone. :) So I had to wait until tuesday because of the holiday. So they were like we can't have anyone come out until next week on monday(so basically two weeks or so with out a phone) and then I had to call billing and yell at them to say I am not paying for something that i don't have. (phone and internet). So it has been an interesting week.

This is my first day back at work. I didn't come into the office yesterday becasue if President Ford's Funeral because everything was shut down. So I worked from home and this is the first day that I had internet so I wanted get everyone updated. I will try and put in more tomorrow.
