To something like this:
How's that for a change???
The apartment I moved into is like an older "warehouse" turned into apartments. It's rustic, cute and I love it---hardwood floors and perfect for me.
My one bitch? Nothing has really been updated except for cosmetic stuff, the floors, the walls and appliances. Which means, the plumbing is older than shit! When I first moved in I decided against getting bottled water, simply because it's expensive (I drink water like a fish) and the bottles aren't good for the environment. So I sucked it up and drank tap water...which was good until Friday night when I noticed things floating in the water. I'm pretty sure it was sediment and lead or whatever. So I went out and bought the Brita Slim Pitcher. Let me just say it's a blessing! My water tasted better last night and the coffee rocked this morning!
Go get the pitcher, it's inexpensive and better for the environment!
I started using earplugs wayyyyyyy back when I was 18, for some reason the slightest noises seemed to wake me up and I'd be up for hours after that. After investing in ear plugs I seemed to be able to sleep through the night. (Although, getting to sleep was and is still a chore.)
My new neighbor is a kid, she's probably in her early 20's. Friday night at ten at night she was blasting music. This morning, my dog woke me up, I pop out the ear plugs and am greeted with LOUD music and sex noises! Thank god I didn't hear that until the ear plugs were out!
I can't believe how unbelievably rude some people are though. Yes, it's the morning, BUT it's a weekday morning! Grow up.
I decided to get a kitten over the weekend, for a few reasons 1) I love animals and 2) to keep my dog company during the day while I'm at work. You may think I'm nuts on the second part, but mom and dad have a kitten who absolutely adores Eli and they tend to get along (except when she goes after his food).
So, I adopted this really cute orange tabby male kitten, and named him Orange Julius---OJ or Julius for short. The first night he was here he did nothing but sleep. I figured he'd be a low maintenance kitty...holy crap was I wrong!
Over the past few days he's proven to be what I like to call a "Crack Kitty." He's all over the place! Bouncing off the walls, playing with the puppy pads I got Eli...he's even been playing with the electrical plugs. I went to turn on the TV in my room the other night only to find out it wouldn't turn on. I was pissed thinking it was broken and not even a year old...nope, Crack Kitty just happened to unplug it...remember that cat on National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation??? Yeah, that's gonna be my kitty!!!
So, I have one question, how is I end up with the retarded, over the top, "special" animals!!! LOL
I FINALLY after almost two months in my new place got my living room furniture...mom and dad also took me out and bought me a beautiful table set, so I have two end tables and a gorgeous glass top coffee table. I think they enjoy doing that stuff, even though I was eventually going to buy the stuff myself.
Also, I got the cutest kitten! He's an orange tabby, so I named him OJ, short for Orange Julius...but that could change. He's so cute and has commandeered my bed. Anytime I come in the house I see him on my pillows curled up.
I ache everywhere from moving heavy shit up three flights of stairs, but I'm so glad I have my apartment complete!
