moved.
so all of my stuff is at my new place, now. with the exception of stuff that was in the fridge or freezer.. that's still back at the old place. it was too damn hot yesterday and i didn't feel like moving that stuff yet. so this morning for breakfast i had a donut left over from yesterday.
today, i need to unpack like a madwoman. i've already done that a bit. i wonder if i will find places for all of my stuff. i've got a hell of a lot more stuff than i thought that i did. i completely filled a 15-foot truck, up to the ceiling. i've also got to go to the old place and clean the carpets. bleh. lots of pet stains...
using a dial-up connection here at the new place. really sucks. i can't get DSL here or even cable modem. how bizarre that i can't get high speed internet access at all and i am IN BOULDER. bleh.
it only took about three and a half hours to move yesterday. i had help from J, S&S, and D (who i work with) and all it cost me was pizza for lunch. =) i meant to make some toffee squares too, but i didn't have time to with all the hectic moving stuff. i promised them all a random dessert happening sometime within the next week.
so i moved, then in the afternoon i showered and rested a while, then went to see a movie (Rush Hour 2). i got home about 9:30 and stayed up til about 11 putting away the 6 or 8 boxes of kitchen stuff that were just piled on the floor. i didn't think it was fair to E for me to leave them lying around.
then i put away some stuff in the bathroom, and found my sheets and stuff and made my bed. i went to bed about 11.
this morning i've put away the entirety of stuff that goes in the bathroom, and i've lit some incense (it smells a lot like kitty on my level of the house). the one in my bedroom keeps going out and i have to relight it.
panda keeps whining. i am not sure she knows that we now live here. i think it was only like two weeks ago that she figured out that we lived at the other place. i am kidding about that, but seriously, it was within the last month or so that she stopped barking at my roommates coming home there. i wonder how long that will take here.
i taught her to jump over the gates here... there are small child-type blocking gates to keep the two mini dachsunds who live here from getting everywhere and eating up everything. i had to teach panda in steps... i first coaxed her to come to me (me on the other side of the gate) and told her, "up, up, yes, up!" because she knows "up" - it's what she does when she climbs stairs or hops in my car or onto my bed when rarely invited there.. =) then she'd put her paws on the gate but wouldn't go further. she kept looking for a way under it... then i asked her to give me her paw and her other paw and i held them both and pulled her towards the gate but that frightened her so i let go. then i had a brainstorm and i put a cardboard box on each side of the gate so it would kinda be like stairs. i got her UP on the box, then coaxed her again to come, and more up, and she hopped over! then i took the box on the far side away, and she still jumped it! so then i took both boxes and she jumped it. she seems unwilling to jump it alone now... she waits for me to tell her "UP" and then she'll do it but if she runs up to it and i am not around, she doesn't go over.
i think i'll take a shower and then maybe have some lunch and then go clean the carpets at the other place. and i think panda will come with me for company.
