The move is progressing nicely. I think we have all of our major furniture now. We still need a dining room table, but Erin agrees it's not incredibly important at this point in time. We may buy a second book shelf at some point in time, but right now, we're okay.
I still need to tidy up the loft area. I have my drums mostly set up, my desk is up, but not everything is on it and I still have several boxes filled with stuff I've yet to find a place for. I may buy a buttload of cheap mousepads to make a soft work surface on my desk, but I haven't made a clear decision on that one yet. I wouldn't go buying a couple of those mousepads, though...as I hear that they make terrible mousepads. I just want the foam underside... As far as the drums are concerned, I played a little bit the other day while Erin was outside...she said you probably can't hear them in another house or anything; they sound like someone's just driving by with the windows down.
---WTF! someone just walked by my office at work with a dog on a leash...dogs are everywhere and it just makes me really want a puppy =\
I've met the backyard neighbor (I don't know if I've mentioned that yet...the original garage to this house was in the back yard...it's since been converted to an apartment and there's a girl living in it...) and she seems pretty reasonable/nice. She also has a 2 month old shih tzu named Echo...so cute. He's basically a ball of black and white fur with a mouth.
Yesterday, Erin's family came over to help with some lawn work. We trimmed some trees (that were encroaching on the power lines), trimmed some vines (that were winding up the house), raked the leaves and did other assorted things. The back yard has two trees that are practically begging for a hammock...
Pretty soon, I'm going to get a bunch of Kerstan's music equipment (PA mixer + speakers) so that we can practice at the house. We haven't practiced much at all over this past summer, so there's no telling how that will sound at first. He played a solo show a few weekends ago with a pretty decent reception.
I lost track of where I intended to go on this entry...

I wanna see pictures of your new place. (I don't care if everything's set up yet or not.) : )
Most things are set up. I haven't gotten the upstairs set up yet. It's coming along slowly...plus, I don't even know what equipment Kerstan is going to move up there...so it might get kinda cramped.
I can try to take some pictures with the camera I'm trying to fix...they'll come out brown and white though =\
Maybe Erin will use our (crappy) digital camera to take some pictures...I can't stand the thing, though, because the battery dies after like, 5 pictures...and the image quality is sub-par.
