So, I haven't had internet for three days because this three day weekend I was moving! Alli and I finally moved in together and it feels like a ran a marathon this weekend. Well, maybe not that bad, but I can't say I got a hell of a lot of rest. All I know is I'm not moving til she and I have enough money to hire a moving company to do it for us.
It doesn't feel like we're living together just yet. It still has that "staying together at a hotel" feel. It's very weird to think that there will never be a "my room" for me again. Coming from four years in the dorms and a condo I shared with two other guys, "my room" was a very important concept - my place to get away, get quiet, to focus, to be alone if I needed, to chill out and unwind. No more, forever more it shall be "our room." Crazy. We made dinner last night and ate at our big table in our dining room. We did our laundry jointly last night. We are the picture of domesticity. It's still so curious to me... like it's not quite my life just yet, like I'm in a TV show or movie. Any way, just a small picture of life in these big picture days.
Apparently Alli's company has a policy that if an employee donates to one of a certain charities, they'll match the donation, so I think that's where we'll wind up giving for Katrina Relief.
