apartments

I'm getting antsy. I'd love to have an apartment to move right into when I getup to Merrill, but it looks like there's going to be no way that's going to happen. I've got a good lead on a nice one-bedroom apartment with all the bells and whistles any single guy could want, but it's not going to open up until about July 1. That will force me to stay with the Radloffs. It's not a bad thing - they've been some of the nicest people I've ever met. There's just always additional stress living in a place you know you'll only be for a month and a half.

I guess I just need to settle down. That's a pun - I need to calm down, but the reason I'm being antsy is because I need to settle. I feel like there's going to be plenty at my new job to keep me running in circles, and I'd love a place where I can go and be alone... and that's not at an older couple's house. I mean, questions just start coming up that are just minutely stressful, but accrue: what food do I use? Should I be at home for dinner time? Do I have to make my bed? Should I use the dressers, or just my suitcase?

But on a good note, it's an immediate built-in accountability. There's just safety living with others that you don't get by yourself. I'd like to think I don't need that net, but I'm not that naive.

On a budget note, I just resisted buying a set of Callaway X-18 irons. They were on major sale, but still would have set me back a fair chunk of change. I mean, I do get a graduation gift, but I already bought a new Nike SQ driver. And I don't even golf that well (although I did drive pretty well this morning... straight, and about 275 average. Deece).

Anyway, pray for me.
