I have internet and cable once again!!

Which is good because I think i've racked up about 40 bucks in data overages on my cell phone. I think i pretty much have to admit to a TV and fandom addiction at this point :P:P:P:P

Still lots of unpacking to do. I'm slightly uncertain if the tv mount in my bedroom is kosher as I and the verizon technician were only able to get 2 screws in (fortunately on opposite diagonal sides), but I guess I can see if landlord wants to help fix if he shows up this weekend.

Now I think i need lunch since my cable appointment ended up being morning instead of afternoon.

Toodles.

Although not settled as attested by the mountIn of boxes in my kitchen. Was up till 3 am on Friday...err Saturday morning packing. Up again by 8 to finish up. Movers were an hour and a half late as their last move the nite before had gone later. Nice enough, finished in timely fashion. Cue 2 hour drive north, some drama over not enough felt pads for furniture, and a need to lead them back to highway (serious, none of the 3 have a gps and ability to use it? Baffled) mostly okay with charges though I feel like they looked for way to bump it up over the quote price, but not exorbitantly and I was too tired to care at that point. Ate leftovers, watched an episode of blacklist on my iPad, and fell asleep on couch

Cue very weird morning in which landlord had to text me to explain how to get the shower head to work, and digging through some boxes to find coffee maker. The. Drive down, and 6 hours of cleaning and too many flights of stairs, and I'm done with central jersey. A friend helped me with 29 flights of the up and down and earned steak dinner out of it. Came home by 10 pm, emptied half my car, cleaned off and made bed and went to sleep. Where new place vibe and PMS combined to make a very unrestful night sleep. Now I've had coffe and need to get ready for work.

Wow, first off, it feels so much better to get up an hour later in the day. Though granted, 5:30 wasn't that bad the last few weeks of old job (started doing it then so my body wouldn't be so shocked by commute), but when you get home at 9pm, generally don't go to bed till 11 since it takes that long for brain to wind down from drive, 5:30 is a killer.

Soooo glad that after this weekend I won't have to do the drive unless I want to. Only wish I didn't have to do it both days this weekend (drive up tomorrow with movers, then on Sunday, round trip so I can clean....may just drive back down on Saturday night. We'll see).

HAVE TO PACK ALL THE THINGS TODAY. Since I'm a procrastinating thing. Also on agenda, drop off cable stuff (*sniff*, the no tv during premiere season is soooo sad), go to bank and get another certified check for movers (my accounts, they are whimpering. Still have a cushion, but soo much smaller after the 8 grand in rental fees/real estate broker fees.....PAYDAY CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH), and buy more boxes. But first, need to fill the boxes I do have!

Sleep, I don't know when I'm going to have it again. But first, my first status meeting with new job!! Which is going swimmingly, though this week has been an online training seminar + lots of introductory meetings. And figuring out that my desk chair likes to spontaneously lower itself at random times. That plus a cracked arm rest has me seriously considering bringing in my fabulous chair. Especially since the bar counter seperator between kitchen and living room is going to make an excellent standing desk.

Oh, and work put up sign for no popcorn without any fuss or need for documentation. Though I now have a coworker bringing me everything he eats to see if fumes will bother me though I keep emphasizing that it's just cooked whole corn fumes unless you hold my head over it. Siigh, I appreciate it but still. I am considering when/if to bother 1 lady about her perfume. Trying to use fan to blow clean air at me though thanks to cardboard filling my bucket I had to have benadryl yesterday (and a half hour nap at my desk at noon!!).

WISH ME LUCK AND GOOD WEATHER. Sooooo nervous about mystery moving company (though, yes, i checked them out at BBB and all that).

Wow, okay, so it will be a long time before i make zucchini bread or turkey loaf again. Not sure which one did it, but those were only new things I was eating last 3 days and I was miserable one way (gas cramps) or another (heartburn like whoah) within a couple of hours of doing so. Plus the burpies. Ugh. Finally cleared up yesterday afternoon after eating nothing but toast for a while.

I even broke out the not completely safe, in that they inevitably break my skin out, italian sausages for dinner, and I still felt better than I had with any meal in the past 3 days.

I hate being a special flower.

Also, it's still 2013 as my mom has been in hospital since Thursday night with fluid on her lungs. Half the doctors say its COPD, other half say its heart attack, and they say different things about blood pressure medicine. She is of course blaming it all on Obamacare instead of just fuckwit Oklahoma physicians.

Anyway, miles of things to do before I sleep. Cut for my own reading pleasure:
