I had a dream

last night that I was sleeping in my new apartment.

But it was only JUST A DREAM....

Apparently, NYC is the place where no apartment buy has ever gone smoothly. Nope. Not once, not even mine. Yup, that's right...Didn't move in. Yet again.

I know what you're thinking. I'm making all this up. I'm not even really in NYC. I was just joking the whole time. I've been google search images on the internet to make you think I'm here, but in reality I'm still upstairs at my parents house.

I really tried not to get my hopes up today about the move. And, to no surprise, our broker did not check the paperwork again before sending it to the management, and they didn't accept one of the forms. Not like it made a difference anyway, but they weren't even in the office on MLK.

My tone may sound like I'm annoyed, but in reality I'm totally ok with it... it kind of works out.  I get prorated for the days that I actually move in. So I'm pretty much saving money by them not letting me move in yet. They're losing money by letting me move 4 days later than anticipated. I'm fine with that. My bed's getting delivered tomorrow, too, so all's good in the hood.

Poor Ashley (new roommate) is sick on Ashley's (current roommate) pull out.  I think it's the flu or strep. Grrrrreattt...right? Thankfully I'm living with a doctor who can cure homelessness AND the flu. She's quite a special one. Man, I'm just hoping and praying and hoping and wishing that I do not get sick. Because I don't get PTO yet and that just would not be fun.  I'd probably just have to pay my mom to fly up here and do her thing and make me feel better. She's always been pretty good at that.

True Life: I'm 22 and homeless.

Let's just say that I do not have my hopes up to move in tomorrow, even though they said everything is good to go. But until I have keys in hand and I'm carrying myself across the threshold of my new abode, I'm not even going to have expectations. Much easier to live life that way.

dad bought this for me... and just when I had begun to think I couldn't love Coke Zero any more...

Happy MLK, everyone. Celebrate and remember that we were all made uniquely wonderful in God's eyes! Love to all!
