moved to a new apartment with my gf this past saturday. never realized how much stuff we had at the old place. moving the couch was an experience in mathematics, how to fit an 8ft long 4ft wide couch up 30 stairs, through 3 3.5ft wide doors that form a Z shape.

net was super flaky when we got here. gave it a day or two. went to the provider and had a chat. said it could be bad wiring since everythign else was the same. checked the different jacks. kitchen one works. bedroom one doesnt. neither can recieve incoming calls. everyone gets a "this number has been disconnected" answer.

as a result i found out today that i miss the best job opportunity i could have here because they called and couldnt get ahold of me so they called the next applicant and hired him. AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! im soooo pissed off. was third shift like my gf works and was only a two minute walk from my apartment and i could ahve any night off i wanted except wednesday. and i would ahve been working alone all night so no one would bother me or anything. dammit!!!!!

anyway, otherwise this is a great new place.

    Wow, small world. My wife and I had the exact same couch issue 2 weeks ago. Its impossible to fit out couch, so now we gotta rent storage for it. So gay!!!!

    And getting my internet was a hassle to say the least. But least it works.

    I feel your pain!

    I've had so many couch issues in this apartment. I've had like four or five different ones, and for some reason can never rememeber the formula to get them through the door.

    I would suggest something like this for the mathmaticly impaired =P Why architects can't design entry ways correctly is beyond me. Until they learn, its bean bags and bubble furniture!

    just fuckin great, being super busy while moving(packing moving unpacking reorganizing) and the phone issues i may have just lost the website commission i was working on. since the guy couldnt get ahold of me he started talking with someone else.

    so that's two jobs i will have lost this week.

    looks like im off to McD's or go to deliver pizzas
