Sorry for the
long silence. It's been a busy and hectic few days.
I took Friday
off work to bring a car-load of stuff to the apartment and clean. Lil Sis came
over to help and did an amazing job cleaning the bathroom.
(The previous
tenant--who is now my next door neighbour--is very nice, but I do no think she
cleaned. At all. Ever.)
Then my friend C
and Niecey G hung around for a while, as mentioned in the last post.
Saturday,
Drummerboy* and I picked up the Uhaul, and then he and 3 of our church buddies loaded
it up with all of my belongings. During this time, the Simple Cat and Daisy
called a truce, and Daisy allowed the Simple Cat to cower beside her under Lil
Sis's bed.
When we arrived
at the apartment with the Uhaul, Mike the Band Leader showed up with a bunch
more people from church. They had everything into the apartment in 15 minutes.
I have never seen furniture moved so fast.
I spent the rest
of the weekend unpacking. I think the place looks quite nice.

Also the fridge
is now adequately stocked.

Sunday, I had my
date. It was.... ok I guess. We had a nice dinner. The Farmer is very nice and very much a gentleman,
but I definitely get the feeling that he is the type of guy who expects the
relationship to get physical after very little time has passed. I told him I am
the sort of person who needs to take these things
E X T R E M E L Y S L O W L Y,
but idk if he took me
seriously. I'll see him again to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I don't
think it's going anywhere.
In other news,
I've been asked to join a second church band as one of the bassists and backup
vocalists they keep on rotation for their Tuesday evening service. I may also
be joining Mike the Band Leader's actual band as a third vocalist. And all this
time I didn't think I could sing at all....
Some highlights
from my hour+ish commute:
*I think
Drummerboy has a new girlfriend. I'd be lying if I said that didn't sting a
little. I told Mumsy about it on Friday. She admitted to me that while she was
talking to him Saturday, it took every ounce of her willpower not to punch him
in the face and call him retarded because OBVIOUSLY I am like a billion light
years out of his league and what in the hell is he thinking. That made me feel
a little bit better.
