Ok so yeah about the move. I was smart this time moving and rented a moving truck and got some friends to help me out (thanks Phil, Rob, and Steele!). So that made moving much easier, it only took 1 trip. That is also because Ashley and I got a lot of new stuff. First off we had to get new living room furniture. We looked a bunch of places and just by chance we were eating lunch and there was a La-Z-Boy right beside the place so we decided to go in. We saw the couch that in now in our living room, we had to get it…so we did! Then we went across the street to Ikea and we picked up a coffee table. To finish off the living room I had to get a TV and stand. So looking around Circuit City had a 42-inch Sharp Aquos 1080p LCD HDTV on sale and we really liked it, plus I’ve always heard Aquos’s were a good TV. Ashley and I also needed to get a new set of desks for the office, since we do all of our work online. Once again it was to Ikea. We got matching desks and set them up against each other. I used her old desk for my test machines. We finally got internet and cable. The provider is Armstrong and it seems they are just like Comcast, so it will be better than DSL, which we had at the old apartment.
With the new furniture and everything else this place actually feels like a home. All of my previous places seemed like a place to live not a home. It is nice to have that “home” feeling. I think the main reason is because we have a lot of space and we actually have like a real living room. Anyways let me know what you think. Since I have the internet back, it’s back to WORK!
