Moved in ... sorta

My arrival in sunny California was anything but. Almost right after crossing the Arizona border it started to sprinkle. By the time we got to Palmdale it was a full blown storm. And I do mean full blown. There was no more rain than a normal storm in Ohio but there was more wind. Justin and I were shopping for a new monitor in office max and the wind was so strong it was shaking the roof and plaster was falling all over the store. The locals were all acting like it was the storm of the century. Someone working at circuit city was so excited, she was happy to run after the flying garbage can in the parking lot. When the storm was letting up yesterday patches kept blowing over head so it would be sunny one minute and pouring the next.

It was sunny and warmer than I am used to for January today. I moved into my new apartment. It almost feels appropriate to call it new because everything is very clean and feels new. I have a gas fireplace a large closet and a kitchen that is fine for the cooking I will be attempting. I’m on the second floor and I have a little patio I can go out onto. The movers haven’t come yet so my computer is on the ground and I will be sleeping on an air mattress. But the important things are here, no not food, no not anywhere to sit, I have the internet and cable tv! I’ll post with more info tomorrow.

I don’t have time to pick out which pictures to post so you will have to settle for pictures of the kitchen.
