Updates

-I like my new car even though the gas mileage is nauseating.
-I am going to sign a lease on Monday morning, movers will come on Tuesday.
-My government loan pay-back people accidentally took out an extra 500 bones from my bank account this month. They kindly sent me an email saying it will be put back, but that it won't happen before November 16th, and it may be even longer. Of all times, people!!!
-While everything will be in Seattle by Tuesday, I want to stay home for as long as possible.
-I need to find a way to make some money for this interim period. I'm really starting to wish I'd pushed harder for relocation assistance.
-I have a VERY long list of thing I need-- most concerning to me is a couch. Even if I find one that is reasonably priced (...free? jk..kinda), the logistical part-- retrieving it gets hairy. My car won't hold a real sized couch and I don't want to have a dorm-room-esque living room and stick a futon in it. Ugh. If I get one delivered it will be heinously expensive, renting a UHaul isn't an option because they're ridiculously expensive, too-- even if they advertise as $19.99/day, that's BEFORE taxes, gas, insurance, blah blah blah. I have a feeling it will be several months before I solve that little debaucle.

Things are moving along. I have spent almost all of the money I've saved over the past year and that is insanely overwhelming and makes me sick. But it's all towards something good and all that jazz. Ugh.

-I haven't forgotten about triathlon-ing. There is a half ironman in Lake Steven, WA in August (I think) that I am seriously considering. I was about to register for it but then saw the registration fee and decided it can wait. Boo.

...I want a money tree for Christmas.
