March 05, 2003
the shady aftermathwell, the big move is over. it didn’t go quite as smoothly as s and i had hoped, but...do they ever? it doesn’t matter if you’re moving down the street (as we did) or across the country...moving sucks. for the last week and a half, i have been so tired at the end of every day (which, incidentally, has actually moved into the first coupla hours of the next day), that it doesn’t even matter barely matters that we don’t have cable yet (time-warner screwed up BIG-time, so no cable until march 11, despite our march 1 “appointment”); i wouldn’t be able to stay awake for anything, anyway.
i am sick, however, that i missed the season premiere of six feet under! i was somehow thinking that it wasn’t until the end of the month, so it came and went and i didn’t even realize it until i was reading j yesterday. i went to the web site, so at least i have a sense of what’s going on...but will have to figure out when they’re showing it (and the next episode) again. it sounds like this season is even more intriguing than the last two, with the deepening “parallel universe” theme and all.
[sidebar: speaking of six feet under, i read someplace that one of my fave actors directed several episodes last season and will appear on the show this season as a friend of ruth’s. cool.]
so anyway, now we’re recovering. trying to create some semblance of normal life amidst more boxes than i’ve ever seen in a single place before. trying to sleep in a house that doesn’t feel like home yet...more like a really messy hotel room (where i also tend to have trouble sleeping). unpacking, unpacking, unpacking. replacing ugly “brass” bathroom hardware and cheap white plastic light switch and outlet covers. plotting our purchases of area rugs and just the right new wall decor. (are you sensing a theme, here? *grin*)
some of it’s more fun than it is work, but i really can’t wait to be totally unpacked, settled, and able to actually cook a meal in our own kitchen.
first, tho, we head out of town for an entire weekend of big ten women’s basketball (yay, us!). ohio state went unbeaten at home this season and secured their highest seed in several years (4th), but also proved that they struggle to win away games. so, we’ll see how it goes. the really fun thing about conferences like the big ten is, any team can pretty much beat any other team, no matter how unlikely it may seem. if the buckeyes do well, we’ll be in indianapolis until at least sunday. if they do really well, we won’t be back until tuesday, and they’ll go to the ncaa’s for the first time in a decade. (yay, them!)
so...the last bits of unpacking will just have to wait.
