I closed on a house last week and Jason and I moved in yesterday! We are so very exited! Last night was the first night we slept in the house and it was magnificent! It was so calm and quiet (compared to our previous housing situation ["the house of usher" as my friend called it once]), and I believe I’ve had the best sleep I’ve had since I moved into my first apartment about 3 years ago. The basement is perfect for a band space and an Arts/Crafts studio. I’ve been wanting to paint and make monsters and now I’ll have the space!

Now for the fun part: Unpacking! Jason and I consider this task like Christmas Our little space on the 3rd floor of the Punk Rock House was not big enough for all of our things, so we have a lot of stuff in boxes.

We are both so grateful for the friends that helped us yesterday, it was hot, humid and a lot of work, but you guys have no idea how amazing this move is for both of us. Thank you!

Photos soon!

I bought a new camera on Friday: a lomographic fisheye

I spent most of Saturday hanging out with my brother and taking photos with said camera. Early in the morning, I went to the library to drop off and pick up some CDs and then relaxed with some Bing Crosby and coffee before heading out to the bicycle shop to get it fixed (I ran over some glass on Thursday and the back tire is shot). Anyway, Ray came with me and unfortunately I am sans bike until this coming Saturday. Riding to the bus to work all this week. I might bring some walking shoes and walk home, it’s not that far.

After dropping off the bike, we at at Jackamo’s Pizza. Amazing! It might even be better than Bazbeauxs…shhh…don’t tell them I said that ;} We finished devouring and headed to Fountain Square’s music shot Arthur’s, in which I bought a new bass! It was an impulsive buy, but I still have the full amount of my stimulus check and I couldn’t resist the color: PINK! (Photos soon) I picked up a new strap and bag with it as well.

Then we heading to downtown Fountain Square and wandered into Value Village and other random shops. Eventually, my camera’s film was complete so we headed to CVS for developing. While we waited, we went to Garfield park and soaked in the awesome day. We got the photos after a quick icecream stop and they turned out great!! I’ve posted them on my flickr (including the God Made Robots show) for your enjoyment : Click for Flickr

+ lack of sleep and very, very odd dreams are making me so off today.

Maybe I’ll feel a bit better after lunch.
