I'm Moving...

...for the third time this year.

That's right. I said a couple of weeks ago I was going to have an announcement. Well, that's it. I've been waiting for an opportunity to move in with my friend Don, who also is my boss (!!!), well, sort of. I mean he can tell me what to do, anyways... And the opportunity finally came up.

I've been waiting a long time to be able to be roomies with a good friend; I've never had the chance. His roommate since college moved out this past weekend, and I'm moving in the end of June.

Don already has the joint cleaned up, bought a new fridge, a new sofa set, new silverware, cleared room for me in the cupboards, is going to paint the bathroom and steam the carpets. This is sounding good already.

I broke the news to my current landlords last night that I'm leaving. I think I'll miss living with them, in a way. I won't miss the hustle and bustle of living with a family of five, but I really enjoy spending time with the adults, and I think the feeling is mutual. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything, though. What were my sisters friends have now become mine, and it's good to have "family" closer than Minnesota if I ever need anything.

So there you have it. My rent is only going up by a nominal rate, I'll be about 10 miles further from work, but I'll be closer to Disneyland! Angel Stadium is going to be less than two miles away, I'll also have two malls within a five minutes drive. I think it's going to be good. My address will be on a street named after a fruit, in the city of Orange, in the county of Orange. How do you like that?

Anyways, I just got back from spending a week in Boston, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, and New Jersey and now I'm in San Francisco (again) for two weeks. Ayyy. But whoa, this hotel we're put up in is the nicest I think I've ever stayed in. I have a view of Coit Tower as well as the Bay...it's sick. And this bed is amazing with some 300 or something thread count sheets. I could get used to this. I can't wait to go to bed. With this trip I've also finally earned a free flight on Southwest, and I have another one coming on Delta in the next month or so. There are definitely perks to traveling as much as I do.

I have to remember not to take it for granted.
