      High Points

      January 20, 2007

      We’re finally wired!

      The cable and internet guys came earlier yesterday afternoon and left no less than three hours later. Apparently, all of our wires were bad. They shut down the main street in front of the apartment for a good 15 minutes to do whatever it is they do to the pole across the street. The best part? It was very soon after the schools let out. Buses full of children were halted until our cable was good and ready. Drivers cursed aloud, and many a child was late in coming home from school so that I had the means to update this blog and watch South Park. It doesn’t get much better than that.

      So, I’m taking this opportunity to post pictures of the new place. Come along with me!

      One of the many things I was looking forward to upon moving out was uninhibited and unlimited bookshelf space. And if you look in the lower left corner, you’ll notice the boxes that hold the beautiful Tiffany’s necklace and matching bracelet that I received from a certain wonderful boyfriend for Christmas.

      I don’t know how to play chess, but there’s always a board set up on the coffee table.

      I was told that if I took the place, they would throw in a couple boys. I haven’t been able to get rid of them since.

      The pig enjoys the waves of fluff on the massive bed.

      My grandmother’s rocking chair, then my mother’s, and now mine. Kind of a scary thought. I’m almost afraid to sit in it, as it seems to come into possession by the women of my family soon before a child is produced.

      And that is so not going to happen anytime soon.
