My vacation day Monday was consumed with moving my life from East Village downtown to Windan’Sea. The movers were reasonably priced and actually pretty decent guys (aside from a slight mix up at the storage place where they gave Sara a hard time for renting a storage unit on the second floor). I’ve made solid progress unpacking my new place, I have my bed and desk set up, but still have a lot of work to do figuring out how I’m going to set up the living room. This also means I’ll be scouring craigslist for good deals on furniture, because I am lacking a couch, coffee table and dining room table. Right now my living room pretty much consists of a bunch of boxes, Reggie and her crate and my very large TV.
Although overall I’m really excited about the new place, I’ll really miss living with Sara and Basic Pizza/FleetWood on the weekends. The thing I’m most nervous about is the street noise at my new place. Living at the intersection of La Jolla Blvd. and Nautilus Street makes me feel like I’m living in New York City because there seems to always be lots of cars, trucks, etc. However, I can hear seagulls as well, and Reggie and I walked to the beach this morning, so those are definitely pluses. I’m convinced that Windan’Sea is the spot, now I just need to launch my own company to make a ton of dough so I can afford a place on the water (Nautilus and Neptune, perhaps).
