In other news...

The cable modem was set up today, as I was finally able to find the box with the router in it. Thanks to everyone who left comments on the house...

Dad scored us the scratch-and-dent special from Lowe's on a washer and dryer, so we'll be heading down to Stockton to pick those up in the morning. Rhonda's mom is staying with us for a couple days to help unpack, and probably to put our yard on life support as it's looking ugly.

Rhonda and I finally moved everything out of the apartment today (well, everything we plan to keep), and Marv and Jess came by to pick up my TV. Hopefully they were able to get it up their stairs without bodily harm.

Our delivery from IKEA came yesterday. Our leather couches look and feel fantastic, and they better since we spent five hours and over $2000 there last Friday. Our living room is starting to look like a picture from the catalog and is definitely the room in the best shape right now. I picked up a weight machine from the house down the street for thirty bucks (thanks, DJ) and some chairs off craigslist.

Lastly, no new home is complete without some new tech. So we picked up this at the Sears Outlet, and our smallish living room now looks like a movie theater. Giants games in high def are so clear and amazing you almost forget how much they've been sucking this season.

If I can find the digital camera and the USB cable, pics will follow.
