Reminder
11/17/2008 10:52:43 AMBesides family, I haven't received any messages from anyone saying they'll help, which is fine if that's the case, but I just wanted to post a fresh note in case someone was trying to decide then forgot about it :P
Let me know either by a comment or an e-mail or a phone call if you will be helping us on Sunday at 1:00 PM

10/28/2008 12:25:42 PMSo Nick and I will officially be moving the afternoon of Sunday, November 23rd (probably starting at around 1ish). We would really like help from anyone who would be able to. If you decide to help, we will compensate you with Pizza and Soda the day of the move when dinner time rolls around.
If you are interested, please e-mail me to let me know.
Thanks! Love y'all!

Our First Real Home!
10/27/2008 9:21:49 AMGuess what! We finally found an apartment! It's really great. It's at Covington Farms (under new management, FYI) in Everett, WA. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1,248 square feet at only $999 a month! Plus free rent in November, so we can take our time getting in. It has a walk-closet and built-in vanity in the master bedroom, a walk-in pantry, full sized washer and dryer (no more having to do laundry at Lewis and Julie's place), a dishwasher (woo hoo), a fireplace, and a view of a pond with lots of duckies! And best of all: no mold or spider infestation! Amazing, right? So excited. We will be needing help to move at some point so if any of you want to help, let me know.
Here's the floor plan:

Netflix
10/17/2008 7:27:36 AMIf you don't have Netflix yet, you need to get it. If you're renting movies from the brick and mortar stores, there's no excuse for not having it. With Netflix, you can stream thousands of movies instantly (now including Starz's library), and get unlimited rentals per month with no late fees -- ever. There are no restocking fees, or any other lame garbage like Blockbuster makes up to justify keeping late fees.
Don't worry about scouring the internet for "netflix coupon codes" or "netflix promo codes" to get a good deal either. I've got the hook-up right here for 1 month of Netflix free (Expires 10/31/2008). Cancel if you don't want it anymore, but the price is fair, and the service is exceptional.
Katie and I have had it most of this year, and even went out and bought the Netflix player by Roku. We love it, you'll love it, and now you can get it free for a month instead of for just 2 weeks. The only thing they're lacking is a referral program. We'd be rich if they had one, haha.

Job Update
10/16/2008 4:38:32 PMJust got out of my interview with Macy’s. She had already hired for the Part-Time Permanent position for the Cosmetics Department, but passed me on to the Linens and Children’s Department. I guess the manager of that department has 2 people within the organization interested in her part-time position, but if their schedules don’t work out, she’ll call me. If that position doesn’t work out, then the woman I interviewed with today wants to hire me Seasonally with potential for permanency (Seasonal ends at the end of December). All that being said, this means that regardless of which department I end up in, I got a job at Macy’s! Thank you for your prayers!
