After the disaster that was my previous attempt to move, I was quite apprehensive of this one. However, I put a lot of time into packing ahead of time, and hired movers this time, and everything actually ended up going quite smoothly. Wow I really...I guess there isn't much to talk about when things go smoothly for a change. My new digs:
Moving to Queens from Seattle didn't really feel like moving to a new city...more liking washing ashore after a hurricane that ate 4 years of my life.
This move though, this one feels like moving to a new city...possibly because Brooklyn is basically its own city. If Manhattan disappeared, Brooklyn would still be there, and would still be more cramped and more expensive than anywhere in Philly. Speaking of Philly, I would like to believe that because I am "from there" ...ish, I will be immune to becoming a snobby new york asshole. However, its going to start costing me $250 a month to store my fucking car, so its highly likely that in a few months I won't have a car, and will suddenly be one of those assholes who never wants to leave NYC.
So...now all I need to do is learn to cook, play volleyball, get into salsa, possibly get into a second sport, start seeing an expensive fitness trainer, work on the startup, find a new bar to go to all the time again, and maybe try to implement an RTS in minecraft...all without spending any money, ever, because my apartment is more expensive than any apartment should ever be. I think I may start eating ramen noodles again. I also really want to get some kind of music server, or something. Also some people at my favorite bar in Astoria have told me I need to go to a bar, drink tea by myself, and not play with or read anything on my phone. Because that's what it takes to look approachable. I didn't tell these people about the tiger hat, but for you guys, lets just be clear for the record:
Tiger Hat: 1
Sitting Alone at Bars: 0
Also I have no place to hang my clothes now.
