Every now and then I Google my name to see if anything crazy comes up. Yesterday I found 2 links to this blog using my real name, which is NOT cool. Luckily at least one of them has been removed. I also found out that I was in the university newsletter last month. My bio is there and everything. Sure wish someone told me!
I am starting over. Last night before bed I cleared out my Google Reader. Today I am going to start being a better blog friend and I'll try to click over to comment more often. I'll also start responding to comments here again. I can't do it from work though, so it'll be at night, but it is a start.
It's funny to watch Bella inspect the heaters when they come on with a loud clank.
I finally found a free bed frame and will be picking it up tomorrow! Finally...my bed will not sit on the ground and I can use the underneath for storage!! And it's free. :)
I also found a dining room table and 4 chairs for $30. I have to rent a truck b/c I don't know anyone with a truck or SUV (who is free on Friday) but it's still significantly cheaper than buying one. I'll purchase 2 chairs for a set of 6 and paint it so it all flows together. SO excited!!!
There's a cute boy who works in my general area and when he goes to get water or coffee I get to smile at his cute little face. I think he's taken though, but it's fun to look.
I have a window in my shower-which I detest. It's frosted but I often worry that people can see in. I have a little curtain up, but it's not enough. Luckily my neighbor was showering in his bathroom last night and I got to see how the frost works...I couldn't see feature but I could see flesh colored skin and his outline. Definitely time to get blackout curtains for that sucker!
It's nice to have friends who email you to say they miss you and they want to get together soon. I've never really had that. People who miss me and actually tell me. It's nice.
I know this is weird, but I love the way my Bella smells. She's getting so big too. I love her.
Frank (my neighbor who likes to get freaky with his wife while I'm trying to sleep) rolled down his car window yesterday morning to say hello and to see how I was doing. It is nice to have neighbors who talk to you...but at the same time, I'm kind of antisocial and when I see them I want to sometimes turn around.
Only 16 more days until my party. I. Am. So. Excited!!! What's neat to me is that I have friends from all over coming-different stages in my MA life all coming together. I know I've said this before, but I'm so very happy I moved to Boston! I've never had so many friends and such an active social life.
I stole a pickle yesterday and it was good.
I once wrote a speech about pickles.

Ewww, on the pickles speech. Hubby hates them, won't even touch them to take them off his burgers. It's too funny!
I had a shower window in my first apartment, used the frosted shelf paper and eventually just hung a second shower curtain on that entire wall because the caulk was leaking on that side of the tub anyway. Never thought about what it looked like from the outside when I was showering, oh well. Too late to care now. Hahaha.
I changed blogs because I googled myself and came to my blog. I don't know how it happened, though, I suspect it was because I had a Facebook badge on my blog.
I google myself and other than the play director, I get the most hits...used to get many more when I wrote for an industry trade website.
Great on the dining room set and bed frame...
You? Anti-social???? really?????
cool about your finds... the chairs and the bed frame...
I googled my real name and a few surprises came up...need to investigate them more...
It sounds like you're settling in. That's a good thing. And free stuff are good things, as well. And yes - get a blackout curtain if you must. The one thing you MUST feel, at home, is as safe as you want to be. So block that sucker out.
