One more night in this apartment, just one more.  Because right now I've got earplugs in and music going and I can still hear the music from upstairs--it woke me up through the earplugs.  I wore them to bed last night because my bed that's normally in the last bedroom in the apartment is now up in Maryland.  And last night I had to sleep in the first bedroom, where is where you can hear the music.

I just knew I was going to wake up to blasting music so I thought ahead and put them in.  Not that they did much good when I realized the pounding noise wasn't from inside my own noggin.  One, how can people do that to themselves?  Play music so loud while they're in the apartment?  How they can concentrate on anything?

And, also, how can they do that to other people?  They know people can hear it, they have to, and yet they play it so very, very loud.  I have issues playing music loud enough that my roommates could potentially hear it, let alone neighbors.

But, like I said, last full day and night in the apartment.  I'll be ferrying hopefully the last of the things tomorrow morning as I go to work and then back up home.  (Hee, home. ;) )

The move went...well, better than expected considering how it started out.

We were short several people--my dad, because work stuff happened, and Mark mainly because my cell phone died Saturday morning and I couldn't get in touch with him *sigh*--so it was just diamond_dust06 , my mom and myself moving my apartment.  (Thankfully, when we got to the house, we had help unloading from the other two roommates, so THAT helped.)  Also, when we went to get the Uhaul, we found out that they didn't have the size truck we wanted (14 foot) or really anything else besides the Uhaul van.

Baah.

4 up and back trips (essentially an hour each), something like 200 miles, all in 90 degree weather.  There were pauses in the moving processes so as not to throw up.

We finally hit Maryland for the last time, had dinner (after showering because oh my God, we were all disgusting) at the Cheesecake Factory (my thanks to them), and unloaded the last truck load.  We started home around 11:30, had to drop off the Uhaul, do a jig with getting the right car and then my mom and I went and found a hotel.

Because, you know, the bed was in Maryland at this point and we didn't feel like trying to set up the left over mattresses for comfortable sleeping for two people.  Or wake up and see a box.

2 am before we hit the sack.  ZOMG.

More boxes to the house yesterday.  And can I just say ow?  No, really, ow.  My back is a mess, I think I've pulled a muscle in my shoulder, my calves feel like they're stuck in charlie horses...I feel 90, I really, really do.

So, nearly done.  I'll be taking more up tomorrow and then grabbing anything else by Thursday.

Things I need to get and I might get those today:

-Wireless internet card for the computer (which is being taken apart tomorrow so I can shuttle it up)
-Computer desk
-Hitting up Ikea to see if there's anything else I might potentially need.

Though considering the music pouring in from upstairs, I might escape soon and do errands before I put the broom through the ceiling.

Nearly there, very excited about moving in completely with the new roommates and new house, just want it to be done with. ;)  ...I think Potomac Mills might have a massage chair.  I might go there.
