10 things of mutterings

1. tree to tree adventures (an outdoor obstacle course) was one of the best things i've ever done in my whole life. i wish i knew 10 years ago that i really enjoy this sort of stuff!
2. and now i have a renewed motivation to go rock climbing again, regardless of joint pain
3. i'm either incredibly patient or too tired to deal with the apt office
4. i dislike when the doctor tells me "you spend too much time in front of the computer". lady, it's my JOB.
5. a bit frustrated that my initial request to take classes (and expense to the company) was turned down due to miscommunication. i would be done by now otherwise...
6. internet was cheaper with cable. must... resist... mindless... tv... nights...
7. that said... internet is slower for me now =(
8. social laziness is unhealthy but i am hesitant to break the shell
9. back to perfecting the art of looking busy at work... sigh
10. this summer is gonna be over in a blink of an eye

moving apartments

ah. now that the move is over with... back to somewhat normal life

some lessons learned:
- call movers. period
- figure out at least 2 routes between your apt and where the truck could park
- always view the unit before signing the lease
- kitchens must have room for dishes, cups, pans, and food
- my stuff indicates i need to downsize or always rent larger units
- no more coke after 7pm because it keeps me up

what of thy life?

1. i am moving to a new apartment this week, and a bit more stressed than i thought i'd be. sad
2. my background noise while packing has been continuous episodes of animaniacs. i owe a lot of my childhood to that show, and it's still entertaining as an adult. teehee
3. this move highlights how segmented my social life is here
4. a small set of new pics up - spring and beginning of summer set
5. i really want to hike more - wallace falls was awesome!
6. my joints are very unhappy right now. so is my waistline
7. mangos are back at the market. yuuuuuummmmmm
8. i want to send off a floating paper lantern again
9. everyone at work has a puppy now... sigh
10. my bromeliad has grown several pups that need adoption soon
