Sixty-one calls. Queue was on all day.

Got the table, big TV, and copier. Now competely moved from the TWP to Ypsilanti. Feels good.

Had a nice long chat with , despite my attack of antsiness lat night.

Mom and Dad bought me dinner in the Rawsonville Denny’s because I’d had coney for lunch. On a related note, there’s a coney island at the corner of Rawsonville Rd. and Textile. In a strip mall. Hrm. New haunt, perhaps?

A chocolate chunk cookie and Sunny D somehow make a cheerful breakfast.

That and another 20 minute drive to work. Hee hee!

My bedroom is finished, and the computer room nearly so. I really need to move that drawing table into the bedroom, because it just *fits* there, and really doesn’t fit in the computer room. If I can just get that desk from …

No word as of yet about the cable install. I probably won’t find out until Monday.

The kitchen table and big TV are coming tonight after work, courtesy of the parental units.

I picked up a floor lamp and desk lamp from Meijer’s yesterday. The floor lamp recommended an 150 watt bulb. TOO DAMN BRIGHT. has agreed from her remote location in Kentucky. She could probably see it from there. So, I need to get some 40 watt bulbs for the table lamp anyway, so I’m going to use that in the floor lamp as well.

More when the queue dies down.

I need two floor lamps for my bedroom. And, most likely, an extension cord. Also, cereal and milk. A general grocery shopping trip should happen sometime soon.

I have a picture of how I want my bedroom to be in my head. The computer room/library is still fuzzy. The TV and kitchen table are coming tomorrow night. Also, I’m wondering if I should hook my game consoles in to the big TV or the little one. Maybe I’ll just put the little TV in the bedroom.

I’m thinking about not painting the library/computer room. I’m thinking of plastering it with posters and wall hangings instead. Anybody know how to find out weather or not it’s okay to put a nail in a spot on the wall? Does there have to be a stud behind it? How do I find a stud if needed? Wait, that sounded all wrong.

In the bathroom, I may have a few wall hangings, but I’m thinking of doing something like the Weavers did with their bathroom. Sponge painting with different shaped sponges, I think. Anyway, it’s something to think about.

I’ll decide tonight on weather to make it just a computer room or a library/computer room. The soft light and bookshelves might work so much better in the living room. And then, in the computer room, I can get that flexible tube lighting that has had and stick it on the ceiling somehow. Despite what my parents always told me, I will have christmas lights on my ceiling. MU HA HA!

If I decide to make it part reading room, though, then I’ll want a light that’s pleasant to read by. This is my conundrum. Any suggestions are welcome. :)

Work is on and off busy today. I have letters that got sent out this morning, and more letters to write, but no more envelopes to put them in. I have them at home, so I might write them here, let them get all wrinkly on my drive to my apartment, then address them there. MAAAYBE.

My first break isn’t until 12. My lunch isn’t until 2:30. Argh. Skippy hungry now. Clearly a trip to the vending machine is in order on my break.

I don’t know how soon I’ll have internet access at my new place, so it may be a while before the new chapters get sent out. As soon as I have it, though, you’ll be getting your fix. :)

I’m going to need to snag one of you Ann Arbor peoples to show me how to get to the U of M version of MSU Salvage. I’m looking to pick up a good metal filing cabinet, and those places are great to get stuff like that. I could even pick up some chairs for my science table turned dining room table. :)

Plans for furniture layout are churning in my mind. I feel like I should be saying, “Excellent, Smithers.” MU HA HA!

I’m all moved in, except for my ginormous television and my ginormous kitchen table AKA science table that you can set things on FIRE on top of.

I won’t get a chance to move things around until tomorrow night, as I’m working today and hanging in the TWP tonight. Leftovers! *does the Skippy Shuffle*

I have canned Sunny Delight here, and wonderful sammich material at home. I’ve got my first load of dishes done in my new dishwasher and I’ve slept on my wonderful futon once again.

And the hot water NEVER RAN OUT in the shower this morning! :) In the complete lack of traffic on 94, I made it into work in 15 minutes.

Oh, and I got letters from and on my move-in day. That added to the coolness of everytone that came out and helped. I can’t thank everyone enough. :)
