Blame it on the cable guy...

So the cable guy has finally arrived and I am writing my first blog from the new apartment. Awesome. To celebrate, let's see some pictures:

Here is my sweet room. Notice the awesome rug that covers the nasty carpet underneath (courtesy of my roommate's butterfingers and a Dr. Pepper mishap that went unwashed... carpet cleaners... please get here soon).

See if you can find these items: The Macro Qual for 2006. Jackalope slippers, a KU ID card, a 2 Euro piece from France (or rather, Spain, where I got it as change), SouthPark DVDS, a very inappropriately placed bottle of Spray 'n Wash Stain Stick (hint: it's Green), and bike gloves.

And now something even better. My sweet ride in the mornings and in the background, the bass.
Notice the missing half of a drink holder on the frame of the bike. That is why I no longer wear long pants while riding a bike. That hurt when it snagged my khakis and broke off, and the guy in the car behind me wasn't too happy when it beaned hood of his car. Nothing too bad though.

See if you can find: a lint roller, a Jayhawk, a bike tire inflater, my study schedule, and the book I've borrowed from my roommate.

And now for the bare living room.

See if you can spot:
Butters, a fork, a pen cap, and one of the many reasons why I cannot wait until we renew the lease and get a free carpet cleaning.

Finally, what you've all been waiting for... or rather... what I've been waiting for... ever since I left home originally for Freshmen year at KU:
Sweet merciful crap!
THAT BLURRY MIRAGE OF SALVATION AND WONDER BEFORE ME IS... IT'S... A WASHING MACHINE AND DRIER!

Okay, the photo is blurry... but here's one that isn't:

See that? Eh? Eh? Loose change. Quarters! Enough to buy a happy meal... oh yeah.

So uh... I've done a lot of cleaning, and got the cable installed today... only went in briefly to meet with my macro prof to get some questions answered. Will do work tonight. But not much. Will probably review the macro quals and finals to make sure I'm up to speed still on all the equations. I'll just blame it on the cable guy.

Or, if you are Raoul, then you just use your GF's washer and dryer. :)
