On my own – again. D-man is off in nevernever land going through orentation. woo. hoo.( I hate it when he is gone – thus the current fence I happen to be riding)
The plan, as it currently stands, if for D and our stuff to move at the end of May with me following at some point. At some point is where things get a bit on the sticky side.
I finish school at the end of July. So the earliest I could possibly get out there is Aug. But here’s the deal. I want to pay off all my debt before I get out there and start living on the kindness of my husband. No, I do not plan to get a job right away. I have worked 1-3 jobs and/or gone to school since I was 16. I deserve a bit of a break. But I need money to be able to do that. So short of some rich relative, who I don’t know (obviously), dropping off the face of the earth and leaving me an large sum of money – I need to stay here and save some up.
The problem is, of course, apathy. It’s very had to care about a job/life that you know is not only not forever but has a definate cut off date. Hard to keep your head in the game when you know for a fact the final outcome. Yar. Good News – bonus check this year rocked! So I will be able to pay good chunk of debt off. Bad News – it just makes me want to get out of here all the more quickly.

Has anyone in my very limited readership ever moved to an apartment after finding it on the internet and renting it sight unseen? Am I completely stupid for thinking about doing this?
I think I’ve found one that I like. It meets all our requirements for things that we need in a good apartment. But even so it’s in a city that I know nothing about. So I know nothing about the location. I have read (online of course) that as long as you stay on the west side of this city you should be a-ok but still. The apartment comes in on the right side of our rental budget and the community seems to have a lot of amenities we would like to have.
Have I lost my mind or is this something not too unusual a part of a long move in this day and age?

God created man and woman and he saw it was good. And somewhere along the line - thousandsof years later – their genes eventually spawned me. And on a whole different part of that particular line – think same forest (ie: human) totally different tree (ie:that’s pretty much where the similarity ends) – it spawned D-man, my husband. We meet and get hitched. Whether god thinks its good is still up in the air but hey, we’re happy.
So after many ok a few short years of riding the academia express to poordom D-man decided they he was tired of that nonsense and ready to enter the big bad world of corporate America. After a few interviews and a few more hoops ( think preforming tigers in the circus flaming kind of hoops) we have – wait for it wait for it – A JOB!
So job said “Yes Mr. D we will be glad to hire you and pay you this much money”
we said “Great!”
Job said “oh yeah, you will also have to move to here”
we said “where?”
Job said “here” and took out a rather large map of Texas
we grabbed a magnifying glass and “eh”
So that pretty much brings us to where we are today – on edge of a very large move from somewhere I know very well to a place neither of us has actually ever been to.
Good times.

This is the new website for Casey – AKA the Bun – and her hunny D-man. We are on the verge of moving to freakin Texas. I know.
