NY Here We Come!

Flew to NY on Tuesday and arrived in the evening. Diesel and I both had 4 huge boxes that we checked in. Between this trip and the next one, where we stay for good, we'll have plenty of room to move all of the stuff we need.

Anxiety aside, we left our boxes at David's apartment and got dinner at a place in the East Village. With lots of gossip to tell, I have to say I had little time to enjoy my salad.

The next day we went apt. hunting. We wanted to go cheap and decided to not hire a broker and do it on our own, but after three days of looking at dumps, we finally gave in and called a broker. Oh what a difference a broker makes! We saw three apartments in the East Village that were nice and Diesel finalized the deal on Saturday at 5, less than 12 hours before we left NY.

This trip definitely made me feel more at ease about moving. The thoughts of leaving little Seatown and going to one of the world's craziest, busiest and biggest cities is quite daunting, but after about a week there, I feel quite confident that this will be a great adventure!

We have two more weeks in Seattle before we leave for good. It's bittersweet, but it'll be a great new chapter!

NY here we come!
