We’re all packed and ready to go! Amazingly, we got all of our stuff into the moving truck but only with the help of my good friend, Eric. Man, thanks so much! We couldn’t have done it without you. So we’re leaving at 9:30 and will get there whenever we get there (It’s 8:16 now). With the big truck being as big as it is, who knows how long it will take; I don’t think that we’ll arrive any sooner than six in the evening. It should be a very long and HOT ride and we’ll be ready to relax by the time we get there. I’m kind of sweating over only nine miles per gallon and not being able to use the AC but that’s all part of moving, I guess. One thing for sure is that it’ll be good to be able to start something new! Moving forward, right!
Anyway, to all of my friends who come and visit this site, as you can probably imagine, things have been very busy lately and I haven’t been able to post many photos or write much. But as soon as things settle down in about a week or so–knock on wood–and assuming that we establish our Internet connection as promised, things should be back to normal. OK, Mizuha!!?? haha
Hey, wish us a safe trip up. Once again, thanks so much to Eric (and Brenda) for all of your help. We’ll see everybody up north soon!!!!!

One day of searching was all it took for us to find our new home! Yes, oh, yes! After going up and down the streets of Midtown–getting totally lost on the ONE WAY streets the entire way–and calling place after place, we found our sweet spot on I Street, which was actually right where we wanted to be. It’s a great, little Victorian-style home that has been very well taken care of over the years, and is close to just about everything–restaurants, bars, cool art exhibits, and best of all, a lesbian cafe in the throwing distance of a rock! I kid you not! And starting the first of October, it’s all ours!!! We’re so excited to get in there and get started with our lives in Sactown! We’ll try to take some pics to give all of you an idea of what it looks like. And hey, we have enough room for visitors so come, come, come!

Tomorrow morning, we’re driving up north to look for an apartment so let’s hope that, one, we get there safely, and two, that we can find a nice (and affordable) place to live! We’ll keep our fingers crossed and enjoy our new ride! Wish us luck, OK! :)

Farah doesn’t care much for my hair when it’s buzzed because she says that I don’t look like a gentleman. Lately, I have been telling her that I want to shave my head again. It’s just that time of year, I guess, where it’s getting hot and it’s time for a change! So she has made it quite clear that she wishes that I do not shave my head again, at least until summer when it’s hot and sensible to do so, but being the defiant, bad boy that I am, while she was at the store yesterday afternoon, I did it anyway! I shaved my head!!! Sorry, Farah! :) And to take away some of the initial shock and a poor attempt at making light of a hairy situation, I stuffed my fallen hair into a plastic bag, attached to it an apologetic note and hung it on the doorknob. She came home to the bag of hair and the ‘Please don’t be mad at me’ note and laughed but then frowned when she saw my head. But it’s okay! We laughed together and I think that she’ll forgive me in time, you know, as my hair grows back!
