Moving
I've had an eventful and exhausting past couple of days, what with moving to a new apartment. My roommate and I decided to help out some friends by moving in with them and giving our old apartment to the new roomates' old roomates. I have some shockingly harsh muscle pain after the heroic effort of carrying great quantities of my stuff by hand in giant ikea bags all over god's green earth, but I'm nicely settled in now and feeling very hopeful and content over the new situation. I just wish I weren't stiffer than a cadaver. My friend Marko gave me a lovely back massage which helped somewhat, but the fact of the matter is I'm just going to be an Advil junkie for a few days until my body mellows out.
I'm going to go partake in my new roomates' tradition; each girl in the apartment has a pair of beverage glasses she can decorate with special glass paint. We end up with a nice set of glasses for various drinks-- wine, martinis, margaritas, champagne-- all done up in the same colors, but with different designs. It's not too matchy-matchy, but they all look nice together displayed up on the top of the entertainment center, and we each have our own glasses for evenings together. I thinking I'm going to do my favorite designs on mine-- skulls and roses. I guess you can tell I grew up in a Grateful Dead household.
