Olivia slept 7 hours IN A ROW last night! Joy!

Yay!!! I hope you got some sleep too.

I hope you got some sleep too.

Sleep was had by everyone! We're all much less grumpy people today.

Oooooh, sleep. Yay for sleeping Olivia.

And I knew I forgot something earlier: interview~ma, KatieBee.

Apartment meara. I think I managed to answer everyone's questions.

So how soon can we see pictures?

As soon as I can take some and get a picture CD made. There is no listing for this apartment, because we got it before it went on the market, and I don't have a digital camera.

When do you move in?

The apartment should be ours by April 15th, and I will have until April 30th to be completely out of my current place. I am going to try to move as much stuff as possible on my own so I don't have to pay the movers quite so much.

Calm~ma for you. Moving always puts my mental gerbils on meth, I hope yours stay reasonably under control

Thanks. I hate hate hate moving. I hope that this is the last time I will be moving for a least 3 years or so.

The apartment is really beautiful. It is a big old Victorian house that has been made into 3 separate condos with 3 separate entrances. There are hardwood floors throughout it, which look like they have been newly refinished. The kitchen is very modern; it has gorgeous cabinets (and I think I can even reach most of them). There is a small bedroom off the kitchen which teacup guy is going to use for his office. A big bedroom with a ceiling fan. And a living/dining area, part of which is going to be my office. There are also hookups for a washer and dryer in the basement, which is a shared space. What else do people want to know?

Much interview~ma, Katie!

Last-minute things to do before getting dressed and getting out for the interview: Mack on the kitty, who is warm and soft and comforting. See the bunnies re-enact Brokeback Mountain in 30 seconds. Wave at the Bitches.

Yay for Olivia's awesome sleeping through the night skills! What a good baby she is. I still wanna nibble those toesies.

Ooh, and apartment~ma! Don't worry - it will be fun; you get to go toward something you want. Burble happily at the phone company representative when you arrange to have your service switched and they'll probably laugh and say something nice to you.

Congrats on the apartment, sj!

And yay, sleep, Cashmere!

Interview~ma to you, Katerina Bee!

Interview ~ma, KB!

sj, figure out how the movers price things -- by the hour or by the room, for example, and maximize the use of them. I've sometimes found that the headache of moving my own things was bigger than the price-tag of just letting them haul the boxes in one trip.

Yay, Olivia! Sleep is good!

Interview ~ma and Bestest Job Ever ~ma to you, Katie! 'Cause even if they adore you, they can't have you if they're just going to make you miserable later on. Period.

Cash, yay for sleep!! May it soon become a habit.

I don't have a digital camera.

I didn't get the bonus I thought I was getting but pretty sure I'm still getting a new digital camera. Will try to remedy your lack of digital.

A-hahahahahahahahahahaha! This from the girl that take MONTHS to get film developed. Uh-huh...

Most of the places I contacted 14 months ago when I moved in here charged by the hour. I know how long it took to get everything done last time, and I have to add to the fact that this time I am moving an hour away and not a mile down the road, so I really want to cut down the amount of stuff as much as possible. If I can keep the costs down, then we might be able to still swing going to the F2F, if not, then we might not being going.
