finished

i'm at my new place. there's internet here too. i'm really digging this apartment. except i went to make banana bread tonight and after it was all mixed up i realized the oven doesn't work. blah. hopefully it's an easy fix. one to bother with another day. kitt's sleeping next to me on the bed. she hid under the covers the first day but she's been out exploring lately. i think she'll like it here. i almost don't want to document yesterday. it was a difficult day to say the least. gareth's friend had bailed on him the night before when they were supposed to be using the uhaul to move. so our former roommate ended up staying up with him all night moving everything here. just the two of them. it took until the middle of the day. then they had classes and work. and i was left with cleaning the whole house by myself. i can't complain too much since they did move most of my stuff. but it was an exhausting experience. it didn't look pristine but for the most part it actually looked better than when we'd moved in. so after all that the roommate and i spent the night doing yardwork. the landlord had mentioned that the yard was looking pretty rough and would cost a "few hundred dollars" to fix if we didn't do it ourselves. so we did. gareth missed all this but while he was at work his legs seized up and he could barely walk. poor guy. i'm glad that's all over with. i got to spend today unpacking boxes. i'm really excited about putting everything in its place and making it our home. that's the best part.
