Last night I went to the Newport Center mall and oogled some home furnishing stores. And also some doggies -- this mall lets you bring your pooch. It's great! As soon as Gypsy comes down here, we're gettin' dolled up and going to the mall!
I slept in my new place last night for the first time and learned a few things. First, I liked it. It's comfortable and cozy and my stuff is just going to make it more "homey." Second, I think my refrigerator is possessed by alien lifeforms. There are some very strange sounds coming from this thing. And third, the guy/girl upstairs is up creaking the floors all freaking night long. I have no idea what they are doing, but it's annoying. Oh, and fourth, that parking totally sucks here AND that Thursday is street cleaning day and you can get TWO tickets for parking violations on this day. Welcome to Long Beach.
And then we have the joys of sleeping on a sofabed. Actually, there really aren't any except for fantasizing about my next bed. And speaking of furniture, I need tables and lamps and stuff. Must go shopping!
Just to interject -- men in uniform are delightful. What is it about the uniform that makes men look so irresistable?
Okay, sorry about that -- anyhow, my boxes arrived today and were put in storage where I was able to unpack a few and bring some of my stuff to the apartment. Now it's starting to feel like home. And I'm starting to figure out what I need to do to make it work. It's a quirky space.
And what did I have for dinner? Cold pizza. I love being single. Not that I couldn't have had cold pizza for dinner while married, but I wouldn't have, you know? And not that I want to have cold pizza for dinner every night, but I can if I want to. Does that make sense?
Oh, and to cap my night off, I rented Star Trek: First Contact and watched it while I unpacked in my tiny apartment with my gargantuan television. Delightful. :)
