RSS Feedthe time that i moved 3.5 blocks
so you would think a move down the street, literally only 3.5 blocks away, would be easier than this one was. going into the move i was convinced that it would only take about 2-3 hours to make the move over to the new place. yeah, not so much. it ended up taking a good 7 hours to get everything cleared out of the old place and into the new one. last time i moved i didn’t have much furniture since i had roommates previously. what a pain in the ass. trying to get the couch in through the back door was a task unlike any other.
i’m slowly adjusting to the new place and taking my sweet time unpacking. didn’t realize how much crap i have. instead of boxes i used tons of those plastic containers. it took like 15-20 of them and now they’re scattered throughout the house. i estimate at the rate i’m going that i should be done by the end of june or so.
comcast came and installed on wednesday and it only took four days for them to get everything working. the one thing i am impressed is that these old coax wires coming in from outside can handle everything (4 HD Streams + 1 SD Streams + Cable Internet). one HUGE complaint is that the HD box that they provided me only connects to the TV with component cables. horrible picture quality vs. HDMI. i never thought the difference would be so glaring.
to top everything off, thursday was the dreaded layoffs day at work. i was lucky enough to be safe this time around which i am quite grateful for. i will however, be using this as an opportunity to try and get more interactive responsibilities put on my desk.
now that the move & everything at work have passed i am hoping the anxiety attacks start to slow down. i woke up from my nap this afternoon and was freaking out. attacks coming out of sleep are the worst.
and now i’m off to go do some more unpacking. until later.
