I got an apartment!! (Thanks Baby Sistah & Pete!!) And ... the complex has 2 pools, a gym, and laundry facilities (oh god -- shared washers & dryers never sit well with me... I am so anal about laundry). Plus, there's an In and Out Burger joint across the street! (read: dangerous) It's 10 minutes from school, which means no commute for the next 2 years.
Although I am really relieved about having a place, I have mixed feelings as well -- the thought of moving back into an apartment after owning a house for 6 yrs is a tad unsettling, as is the thought of being apart from the wife and family for a few weeks. Once they are out there, things will be easier. But for now, knowing that I have a place to crash helps me sleep better at night.
I am leaving 1 month from today (not on the 30th as initially planned) and it's really sinking in. I'm having a lot of up and down moments. And flashes of terror when I remember why I am moving to LA to begin with. But overall I am really really really excited!!
I am trying to get my brain to focus on getting everything done -- and it's hard when I have had so much to do. Aie.
Next on the list: find a way to get my car across the country, finish packing, sell what I'm not taking, get a physical, get health insurance, and get my ass on a plane.
