I made it back to Btown. It's still really odd not having to go to work or classes. Every so often I stop and spaz thinking I am missing work.
I sorted through some things at my parents to see if there was anything I needed or wanted before the big move.
Now that I got it out here, I have resorted through some of it and got rid of a couple things.
Still need to get rid of a bed and a couple of chairs.
My new apartment called to let me know my application had been approved.... I had called them over a month ago to see if they had gotten all my paperwork and she told me then that I had been approved, that the lady I had been working with had been on vacation all week.
Fast forward and she is just getting around to calling me. Since I had her on the phone i asked about utilities and things, and she was all "You don't have any information on them yet?" Uh no. Moving 690 miles, why would I. So I asked her to give them to me, so now I need to set that up. yippie.

When I was at the parent's I went to my hometown library and picked up some CD's one was Seal's new album System. To be honest I had completely forgotten it had come out. I like Seal, I have since the very beginning, but unlike some bands he falls into the group that I own all or most of their albums and like all of them I just don't keep up with them. Train falls into that group too. Anyway, back to System... it's really good. Not that I wasn't expecting it to be, I think it's just that every time I hear Seal, I remember how fantastic he is and wonder why I don't listen to him more often.

Today I get to take my cherry tree out of hibernation. When I was in DC I bought a grow-a-cherry-tree kit.I hope it grows, but my expectations are pretty low. It has spent a month in the fridge - per the directions and I get to take it out today. If all goes well I figure it will be years that I can keep repotting it in bigger pots and by the time I am settled down and ready to buy a house it will be big enough to go in a yard.
Speaking of repotting - two of my shamrocks got replanted when I was home this weekend.  I asked the parents to try not to kill them.

Did I tell you I got super-fantastic luggage for graduation? I did. It's super-fantastic. I have never had a real suitcase before. I have always carried duffles, but I figured since I have a big girl job now, big girl luggage might be appropriate. When I get motivated I will take a picture for you.

Well I think that is everything for now, the wind has left my sails.
