I moved from a 2 bedroom crappy kitchen apt in Arlington to a one bedroom slightly less crappy kitchen apt in Bedford. Why would I subject myself to yet another move on my list? To get out of debt of course. It is difficult to actually save money while moving as you seem to burn a lot of fuel, eat out all the time and pay movers. Granted, I could have used the Elders Quarm from church, but since I don't go to church I thought that would be fairly cruel to ask. Plus I wanted movers to move me, as the last time I had Elders help me out, they dropped a dresser down a flight of stairs. Those idiots. I said "Oh don't worry, that only used to belong to my grandmother." Yes I am cruel. This time I was able to use movers from moveforfree.com. Low and behold they were free and good!
The day of the move, 2 little Mexicans showed up. I've got a 52 inch TV, so I was a little worried. Luckily they had all the right equipment for moving all of my crap. They would take a load out to the moving truck (it had a lift gate) and then literally run back to my apt to grab something else. I was amazed. Then what truly amazed me is when they were moving the TV into the new apt. I am now located on the 2 nd floor. They picked up the thing and walked it right up the stairs and into the front door. Almost like it was nothing. I tipped 'em good.
By the end of the day I was pretty stinky and wanted a shower. Now where did I pack clean clothes? I had to tear apart 2 boxes and a suit case in order to find stuff. I made a mess. I did take a picture, but can't upload it currently.
I situated all my furniture and unloaded most of my crap. I still don't have internet at my place, and am trying to decide if I want it. Sadly it is a need. I need to update this blog at least once every two weeks, and I need to be able to work from home. sigh...
Looking forward to folks coming over to see the pad.

I'm excited to see it, too! Plus, I need to get over there while the bathroom is clean!!!
Chrissy, I visited Jason while he lived out here in georgia and I was very impressed by his clean bathroom. Of course, he did have my 2 hour commute to his benefit...maybe he he invited cleanforfree.com over before I got there.
Jason....are you there? Oh, Jaaaason, where arrrrrre youuuuu? You need to update your blog. I bet you're so busy keeping your new apartment clean, you don't have time to blog. Yeah, that's it! I'm proud of you!
