Another Reason to Get the Hell Out of the City

Someone peed on my motorcycle. WTF? My bike is covered, but there's a huge pee stain on one side. A few months ago I found a huge turd next to my bike, and it didn't come from a dog. My parking space is somebody's toilet.

I need to get out of here.

Bare necessities

Uh oh. I'm moving in less than two weeks and still haven't gone furniture shopping. Looks like I'll be living in an empty house for a while...with no curtains. That should be my first priority. Otherwise, naked tuesdays might get a little awkward for the neighbors.

Anybody know a good interior decorator?

My house is on youtube...

Ok, this is friggin weird. I found a video of my new place on youtube. This is the model house so none of that furniture or decor is mine. Although, I do like that dining table.

Anyhow, if you want a virtual tour of the house, enjoy this:



UPDATE (5/11/2008 2:07pm PT): And no, the girl in the bathroom does not come with the house.

Moving to the 'burbs

Is anybody out there? It's been forever since my last post. I've been a little busy, but I have some exciting news!

Finally, after 4 months of paying a mortgage, I'm actually going to get to move into my new place. The date is set for a June 4 move, and frankly, I can't wait to get the hell out of the city.

My life is sad. I spend 12+ hours a day at work, and I drive 35 miles to get there. My new place is less than 10 miles from the office. Just think of all the extra hours a week I can spend billing instead of driving!

As much as I'm looking forward to the move, it's stressing me out. I have a ton of stuff to toss out and/or sell. I'm in my mid-30s, and I've been living in dumpy college-style apartments all this time. My place right now is full of cheap-o ikea furniture (lovingly assembled by D & L. Thanks!) After almost 4 years in this apartment, I still have NOTHING on my walls. Moving to a new house, I'm feeling the pressure to actually decorate, so it'll look like a real grown-up lives there.

Maybe I'll actually get off my ass and post some before and after photos...
