me

I'm in the first week of my new house.  Its a cute little 3 bedroom house off of Pecos and 215.  I'm about 6 minutes from work, it rocks!  I'm less than 2 minutes from the gym, which also rocks!  :)    

I only owned a bed, a computer desk, and clothes.  My dad gave me this 32" lcd tv, so I got a tv.  Then I had to buy a couch, a dining room set, a washer and dryer, and tv stands.  I also needed to buy all the essentials for a new house, cleaning supplies, paper products, etc.   Its been an expensive week. :(  I'm a little stressed out since I got paid last Friday and spent the entire paycheck in 1 weekend between rent, security deposit, and furniture.  This week is pretty much gone and only next week to go, unfortunately I've already preplanned on spending half of next paycheck. I'm doing sidework again though, so hopefully that will all clear up in the next few days and I'll make enough this week to free up next week's paycheck.

The house is all setup.  It makes me happy to have a house where its all mine, no roommates.  I have Suzie, but shes not on the lease and besides she's my gf.  

Suzie really really stressed me out last weekend, she's a little OCD about doing everything right away, which is the opposite of what I'm used to since I'm used to dating procrastinaters.  Which is a great thing actually, BUT, when you try to cram setting up the house, buying furniture for decent prices, AND moving in the same weekend it creates additional unnecessary stress.  But since then Suzie has been great, and now its just me trying to destress even as I increase my workload more.

I used 1 quarter tank of gas pretty much all week though, which I was really really excited about!  I was spending a tank of gas every 5 days before, so this is dramatically cheaper. :)

Thats about it, I'll post more later. :)
