My Cave (aka Apartment)


I finally found a place to live! and as the title might give away, it is quite 'cave like' (some say it suites me well...).
The price is good and the location couldn't be better. I will have a less then 5 minute walk to all my classes and to work (and to ags :) ). What could be better? (I'm even closer than anywhere that I could possibly live if I stayed on campus!)
If you know me well, I'm sure you will see the place - at some point after it has had much cleaning. Otherwise, just suffice to know that I will be happily abiding in my cave (hopefully along with a cat :] ).

Speaking again of Big Brother

The death of democracy is nearing.
The axe has struck in Sweden.

Exceptionally Weird

Only moments after posting my most recent post (Big Brother - like 10 min ago), my blog started getting wayyy more hits than normal - and from all over the country.

Strange.

Apparently Big Brother is watching me too...

Big Brother



So, these were posted all over BG this morning (all over = at lest the street I am living on).
I am not sure if this one is big enough to be really readable, but it is rather amusing.

And do not forget...

is Watching You!

Good Buys

So today, in the process of helping AGS move and going from one house to the new, we passed this yard sale like 3 times, each time with me eying an amazing black leather chair "thing" (more on that in a moment). Finally I had the chance to go check the sale out and at this point it's like 5pm. Maybe crazy people, maybe smart, for not putting things away by 12 (or so), they had the stuff all over their front yard and were just hanging out there all day.

Anyway, so I go to check out this chair, which had been there all day so I was afraid it was going to be outrageous expensive or bad condition or something. None of the above. Apparently just no one else was interested. And I should mention it wasn't really a chair, it was the curve of a sectional couch... awesome none the less. AND because the guys were moving today they had a trailer to haul the thing back to my (current and very temporary) place.

And the girls having the yard sale were conveniently my size (which meant lots of shoes and clothes to look through :]).

I shall leave out other fun details and let it suffice to say I left there with one awesome leather chair "thing," 4 pair of shoes, 5 shirts, 1 dress, and 1 framed picture all for -- $30.
A good buy indeed.
