2 More Days

Well the time is almost here for the big move into my new place, which starts a new journey for the bf and I. I have been feeling sort of at odds though as of late, now that it is my reality. I see couples finally take the big step and move in with each other thinking that they are going to spend the rest of their lives with one another, but then, they learn they cant stand to live with each other so then a murder-suicide case happens. I am just a little worried now that that will happen to us. Now the killing part, but I just hope we dont end up like alot of other cohabiting couples. However, I know that their are plenty of others who take that leap and make it just fine.

We start moving tomorrow, taking what boxes we can fit in our cars, just to get a head start for Saturday. I have been packing boxes all week, filling them with dishes, clothes, degrees and diplomas. But as much as I have been packing, I have been throwing away just as much. I am trying to rid myself of all things I haven't touched with the past year. I hate throwing things away, and I tend to keep everything. When I throw something away, I feel it is just so final. But I know I need to part with some things, as they are part of a life no longer lived. And I am slowly becoming accustomed to that.

On top of the stress that is coming along with all of that, I am having a series of bad luck regarding some of my new purchases. My new tv, well yeah, I hate it. Why? Because two nights ago it died. I was watching the Presidential address then all of a sudden it went black. I could hear the sound but no picture. I tried everything to make it work again, but no luck. I wouldve returned it but no one has it in stock. Gag. So a repairman is coming to fix it next week. On top of that, you know that new car I bought. Yeah. It sucks too. My heater stop working. I dont know why, but it did. So now I have to get that fixed next week.

And on top of that, work has been extremely stressful and busy for me. This post has taken me 3 hours to write because I cant seem to find time to finish it. So I am going to now. Peace be with you.

Snuggie

So these guys who have a morning talk show on Pittsburgh's Top 40 station made a rap video for the Snuggie and I sort of love it!

Almost Done

The bf and I spent this weekend shopping for our new furniture for our apt which we move into on Saturday. We decided on a nice sectional couch along with a modern area rug. The sofa tables caused a little argument but i think I am going to get my way when we finally order them next week. I also made a purchase that i didnt expect to make for several months. After researching flat screen TVs forever now, I stumbled upon one that had a price tag I couldnt refuse. How could someone say No to a 47inch 1080p LCD HDTV for $850!? Thats right. No one can. Its huge, its beautiful, it is going to make my porno videos seem like the boys are fucking in my very own living room.

Its going to be a very long week counting down to moving out. I have tons of pre packing to do, and I am going to have several garbage bags full of stuff I need to part with. I am ready to move out, move in, and enjoy my new home!

On Repeat

Something to Make You Smile

I Completely Agree




You Are An ENTJ



The Executive



You are a natural leader - with confidence and strength that inspires others.

Driven to succeed, you are always looking for ways to gain, power, knowledge, and expertise.

Sometimes you aren't the most considerate person, especially to those who are a bit slow.

You are not easily intimidated - and you have a commanding, awe-inspiring presence.



In love, you hold high standards... for yourself, for your relationship, and for your significant other.

While it's easy for you to impress others, it's hard for you to find someone who impresses you.



At work, you are organized and good at delegating. You understand how to achieve goals.

You would make a great CEO, entrepreneur, or consultant.



How you see yourself: Rational, calm, and objective



When other people don't get you, they see you as: Inflexible, controlling, and overbearing

Found It!

On Monday I said that i was going to view some more apartments that the bf made appointments to see. Well turns out one of those places is going to be our new home for at least a year. We got an awesome deal on the loft so we couldn't pass it up. It is in an old school building conveniently called the School House Lofts. It is only 1/2 mile from my house and only 2 blocks away from the huge park that overlooks the city.We move in March 6Th which I simply cannot wait for. To tell you about the place, its is a loft so two floors with the top floor only having my room there. On the first floor is another bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and 3 or 4 huge windows overlooking the northside of Pittsburgh and the top of the skyscrapers downtown. Someone was still living in the apartment when we went to look at it which was a little odd, so I didn't get any pictures but the one below is from their brochure thingy so just picture it without the gaudy 80s furniture.We go furniture shopping this weekend to buy living room furniture which I am very excited about. The bf is going to purchase the couch and coffee table and I will be purchased a flat screen TV sometime soon. So yeah. I'm happy!

Just Plain Scary

Dangerous

A man was shot one block away from my house this morning at 10am. Its crazy that these gangsters are now taking out their foes in broad daylight now and at a McDonald's parking lot no less. It seems as though gangs have been prospering throughout Pittsburgh lately. And sadly enough, they are no longer staying in their drug ridden ghettos. They seem to infiltrating the areas that Pittsburgh is trying to clean up and where families and children live. I wish we could just give these assholes an island where they can all live and kill eachother.

Scary/Freaking Awesome

Watch this is Full Screen!

Apartment Hunting

I have been on the lookout for a new apartment now for quite some time, and I have to say that this experience has not been fun. It seems as though my boyfriend and I have different opinions on what is livable and what isnt. Because I spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking meals for my man, I require a nice large kitchen. I would prefer nice countertops, newer appliances, and large amounts of cabinet space. I tend to be picky when it comes to my living quarters because i will in fact live there, sleep there, fuck there, and bathe there. So I want it to be clean and cute.

The bf and I have decided what we can both afford so that we can save money and in a year or two buy a house. But I feel we have allocated enough money for a monthly payment that will allow us to live in something nice. Not something spectacular, but something nice possibly something even with granite countertops in the kitchen. But we seem to be running into duds. Pittsburgh is a very old city, so most of the housing around the city is very old and not exactly updated. So that is what we are running into. It also doesnt help that the location I want to live in is not exactly the safest area, but it is close to every major highway and downtown.

All of these factors have led this apt hunt to be very stressful. If I tend to like something, the bf doesnt, and vice versa. I just dont want to settle on a dingy apartment when I know the right one is out there. We are looking at more apartments today and I have put in a few inquiries with people who are tyring to rent out there apartments, so hopefully I will find something soon.

Crazy People


Crazy people live in my apt building. Well, one to be exact. There is a couple that lives upstairs from mine, and lets just say they have some relationship issues. As the girlfriend put it, "We are getting married, but I know we are going to get a divorce."

Straight people. I know.

She said that to me knowing very well that i am not even allowed to marry the person I love. But whatever. So anyways, the time is roughly 11:45 at last night and I am laying in bed trying to sleep when I hear a loud banging on our door and the fiance of this girl who already knows she is going to get a divorce from a marriage that hasnt even happened yet is shouting for her to get her ass down stairs.

Now let me preface this story by letting you know that this isnt really new. They usually get into a fight, she comes into our apartment and hides in my roommates bedroom while he bangs on our door. So this is happening once again. She is upstairs and he is bangin our door down screaming about burning the apartment down, killing her cat, and destroying her computer. Sounds like a real keeper hunh?

Another side story, this is the same guy who sent me messages via Facebook telling me I was unclassy because I wrote a post on my blog about my roommate not paying bills just one week ago. Talk about being a hypocrite.

So, after about 30 minutes of this going on I start screaming at him that he better stop or I am going to call the cops. So he stops for maybe 10 minutes than starts back up again. So I do what i said I was going to do and called the cops. I explain to them that there is a domestic disturbance at my apartment and a crazy tenant is banging on our door and screaming so that everyone else lives in our apartment building can hear him. Classy, right?

The cops arrive and go and talk to the crazy guy upstairs. The time now is probably 1am or so, and you all can imagine how thrilled I am to be dealing with this. The cops leave, and I am thinking everything is over. I was apparently wrong. He screamed in the hall again that he was leaving shortly after the cops left, so that the whole apartment can hear and about 1 minute later returns and lets the apartment know that he lied and he is going to stay, cause you know, we all care.

Around 2am, I am sound asleep after dealing with this trash for the past 2 hours, and can you believe he is once again banging on our door screaming! I literally jumped out of my bed when he started again. I seriously couldnt believe it. Some people just dont know when to walk away back to the trailer park. He threatens to break our doors down if we dont open them, at which point I plug my ears with my fingers and attempt to block the pounding and screaming. He does eventually go away, thank god, and allows all the tenants of our building to fall back asleep.

This guy is obviously oozing class and maturity right? He apparently took a lesson in Class 101.

I hope the girlfriend finally breaks up with this guy and gets him out of our apartment buildings life. I honestly am still shocked that someone lacks the decency to know better than to pound on someone elses door in the middle of the night while screaming. Its unbelievable. I hope she kicks his ass out and he can go back to the trailer park where he probably came from so that I can go back to getting a good nights sleep.

Booyah!

V-Day

Since Valentines Day is is only 2 days away, I thought I should mention it. This year is going to be quite non-exciting for me and the bf. Because we are moving into a new place, we are trying not to waste money for the time being. Last year, we went to one of the finest restuarants in Pittsburgh and ate one of the most amzing and expensive meals I have ever had. After our $200 meal, we celebrated by rubbing our man parts together. It was fun.

This year, it is going to be much more low key. No elaborate 5 course meal dinners or anything. Instead, we are going to the Pittsburgh International Auto Show with another couple and then we are gonna go have a quaint dinner at a cute little Thai restaurant.

What r you readers doign for valentines day? Anything?

Awesome

The Steelers won the Superbowl tonight during an intense and nail biting game. It was just how the Superbowl should be. I couldnt have asked for a better time. I had my closest friends around me as we all watched the Steelers win more Superbowls than any other team in the USA. We toasted with champagne after the victory and went outside for some victory screaming as well as listened to the fireworks and screams of people all around the city. It was quite a moment.

Not only am I excited that the Steelers won, but i am also excited because I may be buying a new car tomorrow. This was something completely unexpected, but driving past a car dealership on Friday, I found a car I must have. As long as they give me the car for the price i am going to offer them, as well as give me the price for my car that i want, I should be driving home with a new car tomorrow evening. And just in case you are curious as to what it is. Just take a look...

Superbowl Sunday

Here we go Steelers!!

I am throwing a large Superbowl party at my house today, and finally just got done cleaning. Now its time to start making food for the 15 or so people who will be joining me to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers kick some Cardinals ass! Can't wait for the game!
