Welcome!

Welcome to my new abode, compliments of the lovely Lacey. How cool is she? Created this as a big surprise, but I'm just now getting around to using it.

I've been rather silent of late (last entry on diaryland was more than a week ago). Just trying to catch up after my week-long trip to New Orleans.

Last Monday, we were off for President's Day and got to experience the aloha spirit up close and personal. Sam and I helped one of his coworkers move. Her mattresses were strapped to the roofs of two mini-vans. We set out to the new apartment, cruising along when plfft, off flies the boxspring. Amazingly, it was in a gap of traffic that it made its way from the right lane, across the left lane, to the center median.

We were about to tackle attaching it to the roof again when this woman in a pick-up truck pulls over. She insisted upon carrying the mattress in her vehicle, completely going out of her way, 45 minutes in each direction. Just because she wanted to help! She would hardly accept a bottle of water.

Let's see if I press the right buttons to post this.
