Oh, and I was feeling randomly blue today, so I baked a cake. Didn't change my mood, but... cake! It's yummy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Someone in my apartment complex was having a pizza delivered right as I got home.

I managed not to steal it, but now I want pizza. And Donuts. And Cake.

Jen, soon you will be here and can ...share your cake! OK, we can cheer you up, too.


JenP - Sep 30, 2009 5:04:12 pm PDT #11672 of 30001

Yay! Actually, I think sharing my cake would have cheered me up, so win-win!

When thereabouts is moving day?


JenP - Sep 30, 2009 5:17:33 pm PDT #11674 of 30001

Well, it's looking like early/mid Nov. Which is really much sooner than I think it is. Six weeks? I'm seeing my boss tomorrow, and I'm hoping to get some more solid data re: timing. Because finding a place and actually moving - I need to get on that. Oh, god, where's the cake?

Well, if worse comes to worst, I do have a spare (cathair encrusted) bed for while you are looking. I wish I were housemate material to offer, but I'm not & I like to keep friends (especially with only one bath!)

Also? It'll be fine. There are plenty of places. I found my apt in 2 days. Hell, I found HOUSE in under a week!

Hee, you're awesome - thank you.

I am in a good situation, because I'm not on a lease, and roomie is very mellow about it all. As long as I can deal with the commute, I'm not without a place to live, but that's also making me kind of slow to act. Bel Air is an easy commute, but I won't be there permanently. I just need some definitive time frame stuff from my boss, I think. And then I will force myself to deal with the logistics of moving.

If only I could blink my eyes and have it done. I'm actually looking forward to my own place again - and being in Balto. - I just wish there were Moving Fairies to handle it all.

Just let me (& lisah) know when you want help!
