Movin' on up

It seems I've moved to a new house. Same number of bedrooms, a more reliable roommate (I'm looking at you, Alex and Ryan...), though definitelly closer to society. I'm once again getting used to falling asleep with the sounds of the city around me (well, the northern city, I'm not down town or anything), and getting used to living in a house that was built in the 50's.

New House:

Wired: Bigger bedrooms! I can fit a big bed, dresser, huge desk, several shelves, and still have lots of floor space and a closet!
My own front door. Mini-party in Max's room! Yeah! And the distance form the other two bedrooms means it can be a LOUD party! YEAH!!
Covered back patio. Now we can drink ourselves silly while it's raining! Not that that stopped us before, but now it'll kinda be classy!
Garage. Definitelly using this for stuff, not parking. Right now, it has half our furniture. It's gonna be a long week.
Location, location, etc. We are walking distance from my work, a grocery store, and a pizza place, and we're CRAWLING distance from a pub! No more boring sobriety.

Tired: Definitelly has a "built in the 50's" feel to it. Lots of yellow walls.
The windows are single pane, with no screen. I got used to keeping bugs out in the summer, and heat in during the winter. No longer.
These two things qualities together mean about a hundred spiders who think they are paying rent. I fling them outside!
The neighbors are all around us. I think this means we will make them hate us, even though we are super friendly. I'm just waiting for the house warming to include some cops--woo!

In the end, even if we moved south, we're movin' on up! I love the city feel. As Jacob put it, when you walk down the street there's actually other people! The suburb thing is pleasant to be sure, and I can appreciate it, but I don't enjoy it as much as feeling like I'm connected. And the thing it, it's still totally a suburb! Just not the bordering-on-rural one we left.

Also, we're starting this time with a great deal of organization. A fourth account just for bills/rent, that we all drop our monthly payments into, then pay out from. And I do like the idea of the bi-weekly Cosco trip. Hella money saved. It's funny, I feel almost like I'm getting better at using society. Must be some sort of 23 year old thing.
