Since I last wrote, quite a bit has happened. At work, we're gearing up for our Fall 2013 season and I officially acquired my tenth book today! (Happy dance.) Tons of original work coming out in time for next Christmas that I'm super psyched to edit. Memoirs and novels mostly, which... is pretty perfect for me.
In the meantime, though, work is kicking my ass in every way, whether I'm at home or at my desk. I have a feeling I'll be spending the next few weekends in the office, just trying to catch up—and then get ahead. Which is actually okay because we could use the money, because...
We're moving! Again.
It's official. I received confirmation last week that we could get out of our lease without any penalties and they already have someone moving in March 1. So we're looking to get out by February 15. We met with an agent today, looked at two places on the Upper East Side, but really weren't impressed. By the agents, by the apartments... The area was cool, but still too far away from where we want to be. The Lower East Side is somewhat unrealistic for our budget, but I've been in touch with another realtor for a different company and she sent us a few listings in the LES that we could possibly see Thursday or I could see on Saturday.
So, we're making progress. We have a few weeks, but we'd really like to know where we'll be by February 1 so we can schedule a moving company, send our extra furniture home, and pack and clean. The search today was almost disheartening, especially because the people we were touring with kept emphasizing that we couldn't get what we wanted. We know we're going to be sacrificing space—and a bit more money—but we're willing to do that if we can spend a bit more time together and reduce Matt's fifteen-hours-per-week commute.
So, mid-February, if all goes according to plan... We'll be seeing Anthony Raneri play an acoustic set on February 13. Valentine's Day is the 14th, although we're not quite sure if we're going to celebrate it because we may be a bit po'. I'll be taking my "floating holiday" on the 15th to watch the movers (alone, because Matt's going to get out of another move. This is #3 that he doesn't have to help with). The 16th, we'll be unpacking. And the 17th, still unpacking, and celebrating my birthday. Again, alone. Unless I can get some people to take me out. And then the 18th, President's Day, the office is closed. So more unpacking!
Busy, busy month. And before that all happens, Matt's birthday is coming and we're supposed to be getting a visit from Stan, which will result in what I can only assume will be an impressive evening as we dine with Matt at wd~50 on a discount. But we'll see what happens.
Good luck with the apartment hunting!
