Moving!

In 2 days...I'll be in a duplex!!! Address change AGAIN!! At least this time, I'll be around for longer than a year. Depending on how things go, possibly two!

I am so excited about moving! (Again) I feel like I've become a pro at it, and with all the practice I'm going to get this weekend (moving 3 people at least), it'll be a breeze! I'm nearly packed as it is (took only a few hours - I don't have much, other than books).

I have a (million? no. a ton? no.) bunch of ideas on decorating, and I'm pumped to exercise my creative mind, pending the approval of our landlord. I plan on documenting my progress with pictures - the good, the bad, and the downright awful, tho I'm sure those will be much harder to admit to having done.

First project: my dresser, desk, and bookshelf. No pictures yet (want before AND afters), but I've already caught a snag. My colors in my room are grey(various shades), black, and olive green. Classy! :) HOWEVER. I painted all three, finally brought them into my room (i.e. into the light) and realized it's more of a navy than a dark grey. D: Nice color, really, but NOT what I want. I'm considering bringing in one of my drawers to show them - the color is close, it's just got too much of a blue hue. Psh. Last time I trust a new paint guy...

Finished product to come...

(Ps, TERRIBLE idea to bring a whole sleeve of ritz crackers for lunch to make little sandwiches. MUCH better idea to portion out the crackers. I ate the whole sleeve. D: )
