Okay, so maybe calling myself a genius is going a little far...but I am pretty smart. The only thing that this apartment is missing to make it a real home is a television. I think we all came down here with the hope that one of our roommates would bring one and therefore, none of us brought one. We've been okay without and have really bonded a lot and spent many nights sitting up talking or crowding around a laptop to watch a movie. We've talked about pitching in and buying one, but they're just expensive and it would be a pain in the butt when it was all said and done to get it out of here.
Then came my stroke of genius.
Long story short, we ordered a projector a few days ago. It should be here tomorrow so we're all staring at the front door in anticipation of the UPS delivery guy. I know it sounds like a silly thing to be so excited about but when you live without a way to watch TV like a normal person (even if it is just going to be mostly DVD's) for almost a month...it's odd how you miss it. I'm not even a big TV person, but it will be nice to have the option.
I really don't have much else going on right now. I got up and went and ran a few errands this morning and Alyssa went with me, so that was nice. Now I'm just waiting as long as possible before I have to get ready for work.
Don't get me wrong, I love my job. But work is still work and I would much rather spend the day with my roommates laying around the house.
Oh! I found a fresh meat and produce place in Orlando that looks amazing. I wanted to go there this morning, but it's about half an hour away so I'm going to wait and either go on my day off or wake up earlier and go before work one day. If I had gone today, I would have been in a rush and nobody likes grocery shopping in a hurry.
Well, I'm sure some people do...but the grocery store is my happy place.
So when I do go, I'll take some photos and let you all know of the wonderful things I discover. I'm very excited. Fresh and local produce, here I come!
