Moved...

I'm now moved into my new appartment (email me if you'd like my new address). Overall, I like it. The neighbourhood is very quiet, the neighbours are super-nice, and it's quite comfortable. It's not the apartment I originally viewed, but it's more-or-less identical and once some issues are worked out, I should be very comfortable.

The move itself went both very poorly and rather well; nothing important has broken, and everything is packed up pretty well. Unfortunately, my appartment wasn't ready when I moved on Monday (despite promises over a month ago that I could move a few days early!), so I ended up moving into a storage apartment (and camping out at Mel's), and then moving again on Wednesday. I had help on Monday from a moving company, but was largely on my own on Wednesday (Rick helped a bit, and Mel helped towards the end when she finished work). I'm a tad sore, but amazingly enough - I did it! Moved 90% or so of my stuff myself. I also received a rent reduction and a big apology, which works.

Now for the big downside. The folks in the neighbouring apartment moved out just before I moved in, and left a horrid bug problem. It was bug-bombed yesterday... and now I have roaches. I haven't even lived here long enough to make a mess, so I know it isn't my fault - but the buggers are coming through the walls from next-door. Tomorrow I'll purchase bug-war supplies, and try to make the landlord pay for them.... worst case, my law degree is armed and ready. Fear my legalistic might!
