i will be "vacating" my apartment by september 15th, 2003.
no more jersey city for me... i must admit i haven't been going into the city all that often over the past 2 years... and the main reason i moved up north was because i worked at nine west - which was at 32nd & 5th... then i worked in jersey city and then back in nyc again, so it made sense to stay here
now i drive to work every day (well, except tuesdays and fridays because i can work from home) all the way to saddle brook...
it's funny, from jersey city, if i leave my house at 8:30am, i am usually at the office by 9:15/9:30... if i leave the house in brick at 8am (that's at the latest) i can be in there by around the same time - that's barring crazy ass traffic.
as long as i have my car, my own schedule (as opposed to the train or bus - i commuted for a couple of years from squan to manhattan via train and bus - and was always on their schedule which stunk) and as long as the radio and cd player works - i am set... and a big thing of iced coffee (hot coffee in winter)
it'll be fine. no, really... it will... seriously.... don't freak out.
*someone get me a paper bag - i'm hyperventilating*
so, i am working from home today - but i deperately need to begin packing... i am so screwed.
and i've been pricing moving companies.... jeezuz.... an arm and a leg!
i'm kinda fluctuating in and out of depression because i am leaving here and giddiness because i am going to be saving money and helping mom with the house - getting all ducks in a row on both counts...
so, no more Jersey City Posse, Donk - but still am gonna be in NJ.... exit 91.
which means i have to drive to exit 159 every other day.
and i am going to have to sell my treadmill - hey, if anyone wants to buy it....
it's a proform cd coach - i paid approx. $1300 (with shipping/handling costs as well as some other ungodly expense & it also has a spare motor) for it in 1998 - but send me an inquiry if you live in the north jersey area (am not shipping it) and we'll see what we can work out... heh, i said "work out"!!!
besides toning your body, keeping your heart in shape and saving your life... it also makes a GREAT clothes rack!
i have a dresser, queen-sized bed (headboard/footboard - it's wood with iron), kitchen table w/ 4 chairs (the table has a tile top on it - it's nice)
brand new bookshelf still in the box... haven't put it together yet.
and MUCH MUCH MORE!!!!
