You wouldn’t be able to tell by looking at this post, but not being able to work on my blog has been killing me. Right now, I’m blogging from my tablet, because I haven’t bought internet yet, and I’ve been having no luck using the apartment wi-fi with my PC. This means this is going to be a very short post, because typing on this thing is incredibly tedious.

This also means that my posts are not optimized for search, and the picture attached to this post and every tablet post afterward, is going to SAWK!

In other news, I hope to get full fledged functioning internetz by early next week, so I’m praying my Alexa rank holds out. I’ve worked hard for my traffic, and its a pity to see it go to waste.

The upside to all of this is that I am finally all moved into my new place! I have a few last things to pack up from the old place, but I have been sleeping here all week. Its been too interesting to not write a poem or short story about someday, or to not mention in a blog post. The first night I stayed over was the worst. I was so tired from the day and night before, that I was hallucinating things, and thought every sound was either a demon or a ghost. As tired as I was, I’d wager that I got about 3 hours of sleep.

The next night I discovered I had an ant problem. There were a few scavengers on my counter and in my tub, and I’m still not quite sure what to do about it yet. This was the same night I also busted a pipe underneath my bathroom sink after trying to fit a tub o’ shit inside it. It leaked for a couple days but I called the landlord and the maintenance guy got it all taken care of.

On the upside, I have never been so happy in my life. Everything I need is within walking distance, I feel like I’m living in New York, or some place like it. I told Bailey the Starbucks was 4 blocks away and as awesome as that is, it’s still ‘too far’. He said ‘that’s the city life! You’ve gotta walk everywhere, get used to it!’ But I totally am. I walked to the Ralph’s a couple nights this week for quick dinners, and it’s so neat to see all the people out and about. I’ve never lived in a bustling place like this, where I’m woken up at 12:45am to laughter on the sidewalk, arguments in the building next door, and random violin playing. But I know for a fact I am loving it.

I have so much more to say, but there’s a time and a place. Until then, know this: despite my absence, A Novel Quest has resurrected, like I said it would, just as Jesus said he would, and being that today is Good Friday, and Easter is approaching, I think it’s fitting.
