all moved

man this week has been crazy for me, and I don't forsee an end to the craziness for a few more weeks to come!

On Friday, Heather's dad flew into town and ran some errands for Heather and I while we were at work. I met up with him to give him our house key and Heather called to let us know that she was also on her way.

I spent all day Saturday packing up the house. The movers came and spent an hour and a half loading their van and then an hour unloading at the new place. It wasn't too painful, thankfully. When we got to our new place, however, there was a lot of things wrong with the house.

Our gas stove wasn't working. No gas was getting to the pilots. Turns out whoever installed the stove did it wrong and stripped something. Our maintenance man was NOT happy about it. Although later when we had a spanish session, he called me hermosa and I thought that was nice. Anyway! He fixed the stove, although that didn't do us much good since the fridge was also broken (a great time for a fridge to break is during hte middle of a move, when most of the food was going to be tossed anyway!). We also had no hot water because our water heater was apparently broken. On top of that, our heater in our house was broken.

So, we had nothing hot. Good times. Anyway, there's still a few things that needs to be fixed that heather and I need to document, but for the most part, the house is pretty awesome.

Tonight I'll be cleaning up the old place and hopefully saying goodbye to that dump forever. We'll see. :)

There's something so very cool about a new place to live. I love the first few weeks in a new home. It's comforting... the strangeness.
