Exhausted - A unformatted posting

Posted in areon, moving, san francisco on June 27th, 2006 by ballew

Even with three of my friends helping, moving into my new place took for ever, plus it was 2 trips in the uHaul to get everything. I ended up with a couple of losses in the process, the first being my pink sofa (anyone want a pink sofa?) and my box spring (uh, need a box spring?). I need to make a shopping list, because I’m throwing out so much old stuff and I want new stuff. For example, a sofa would be nice. Perhaps some sort of move-able wall to partition the front room for the rack. The front room is turning out to be much larger than I expected, same with the bedroom. More shelves would be nice, who ever made this place made tiny closets without shelves! I need a dish drying rack: no dishwasher! I’m thinking about getting an Areon chair for the office too.

I have Comcast cable for the moment, 6mb by 286k/b, for those in the know. The computers aren’t setup yet, just the laptop. I’m still debating on where everything should go. At the moment I’m putting them in the bedroom, but I have so much space in the front room I could put it there and just leave the backdrop of Market & Mason for what is behind my computer.

The car needs to go somewhere. I’m 2 miles away from where I can park my car, and there is a Cityshare spot (a Civic Hybrid! with a bike rack!) not 20 feet outside my door, and a Budget up the street. The no-car idea is as strong as ever.

Speaking of getting rid of stuff, I have oh so much more to throw out. As I unpack, I think to myself, “Why did I bring this?”

And then I think, “Why not just get new stuff, something nice, since you have the money to do so now?”

House warming soon. Maybe when I have places for people to sit other than the floor or my two wooden dining room chairs?
