Next Chapter - Writers Cramp...

This weekend turned out to be much busier than Totem and I had thought it would be...

Friday night we had a blast at the annual Engineers Ball. While the dancing wasn't the greatest (the DJ played music like it was a dance club - after three hours only 2 slow songs before we left) and the people working at the place were disrespectful, but we got to hang out with a bunch of friends and forget about the world around us for a little while. I've got pictures, and I plan on posting them, I just don't have any of me. No one grabbed my camera while I was dancing. :\ So if anyone else who was there ::cough:: acwmaiden, autonomy, kirk11235, smilemoreb ::cough:: got pictures of me, send 'em over here and I'll get them online with mine...

After the dance we went midnight bowling with the entire gang (11 of us) and had a blast. We all got around 4 games in before they closed up and I managed to score pretty well in all 4 of my games. Better than I did when I was in a league... Maybe I should have played in the league when I was tired and falling asleep. ;)

Totem and I had to get up early on Saturday morning. She and her mom went out shopping for floral arrangements for the wedding while I started "finalizing" the old apartment. I managed to get the office, bedroom, and bathroom all packed up before Totem came back. So loaded up her van with stuff and moved it over. She then tagged along with me to my second job where I spent a couple of hours coding and swearing at myself (READ: I've got a rant brewing...).

Sunday morning was early again because we weren't able to finish the apartment on Saturday. Thats when it started hitting us that we were doing it again. Moving. Another chapter had closed in our book and we were starting another one. That's why I wrote writers cramp in the title. We're tired of moving. We both promised ourselves that on the next move, we are first going to get a UHaul. :) And second, that we are going to move into a house that we will live at for more than a year (We've lived only a year at the last three places we've rented so moving is becoming all too common for us).

But, on the upside, change is normally good. We managed to finish cleaning out the old apartment and get it inspected by the manager with only being an hour late to work (Totem Mom's was understanding which was nice).

So now we are in. Everything is at the new place (either in the garage/storage or in the basement with us) and we're settling. Now just to focus on graduation and then I'll be able to fully concentrate on my wedding...

I've got the CD with the LAN party, egg drop, botwars and E-ball pics. You're next in line for it to be passed on. So you can have it tomorrow, since I don't see you today :-D

Acwmaiden: Thanks!!!
