Josh and Erin in the Twin Cities

We are officially moved into our loft!! Some friends helped move the last of our crap over to our new place today, we had it all here in two trips, and now this place is packed!! You never know how much junk you really have until you move, and then it starts to set in. I walked around the loft yesterday and decided that I didn't want any of the stuff that was left at the apartment, but then I realized I didn't have a coat and that I would have to go back. So much for minimalism. At least our storage locker is still pretty organized, even if we have more to move down there in the coming days. I have vowed to get rid of anything that I don't use for 6 months, so we shall see how that goes. Maybe I'll put stickers on things with the date of last use, or maybe that is just a little more anal than I really am.

We also stopped in to the Room and Board outlet store today to see if we could find some cool chairs for the living room, and lo and behold! There was our couch!! The one that we had just put a deposit on at the local store! So, we canceled the order at the retail store and bought the one at the outlet for a nice discount! Now our furniture is going to be delivered next week instead of the following one. We are heading back tomorrow to see if we can find some chairs, but unless they get a LOT of chairs in the overnight shipment, it is not looking good.

The home theater guy stopped in on Friday morning and checked the place out, and is supposed to get back to me with options on Monday, I can't wait to hear what he suggests. He and I have already agreed that a DLP is the only way to go for the size I want, and the price point I want to be within. The only thing that is causing me fits is that the 'standard' stereo rack is 20" deep, and we only have 17" to work with. He had some creative ideas of ways to mount everything, one being that the front of the hardware would come through the wall, another would be that the whole system would hang from the ceiling and be somewhat out of the way, but we shall see what he comes up with.

That's about it for now. We just saw '3:10 to Yuma' and it was really good, check it out. There is also a new movie coming out with Tommy Lee Jones that looks awesome, I really want to see it, it's called 'In the Valley of Elah'. Check it out, it looks awesome.

Adios, have a good weekend.
