My current (grim) existence

There are few things I hate more than moving. Most seafood, Boston drivers, and wearing orange are all on the top of my "dislikes" list but moving is definitely much higher because of the sheer length of time it for which it tortures you. Not only do you start thinking about it long before you actually begin packing but even once your move is supposedly finished, you still have all the unpacking to do. Blech!

But, for the next 48-72 hours, moving boxes are an undeniable part of my current existence.


The story of the move:
For those wondering why we're moving 2/10ths of a mile to live in an identical apartment setup in the same apartment complex, here's the short version.

Lincoln Heights has been renovating their apartments for the past few years but needs to have them all completed by the end of 2008. We have been living in an un-renovated apartment since we moved in two years ago. Because our lease was up in May we were informed we would have to move out or renew our lease in another unit.

After searching for something similar with a washer/dryer in unit and within walking distance to the T, we decided just to stay where we are. The rental prices have gone nuts since we moved in here and we like the management company (and the pool!). I'm also partial to central air and the new granite counter tops, new tiling in the kitchen and bathrooms, and the new appliances will be nice, too.
