Diary of an up and coming sociopath

So, I’m 24 these days. Still not much different an outlook though, but then there rarely is.

More importantly, for my birthday, I received:
Monies towards housing-related goods and towards my new TV, details of which will be forthcoming soon.
Cosmic Jam/Bewilderness DVD
Book of quotes
Family Guy S4
Book of Boris Johnson pieces
And probably more besides which I’ve forgotten.

On Sunday, Mum and Terry drove down to help us move the mattress from our current house to our new house, and replace our good mattress here with the worse one that was here when we moved in. It all went smoothly enough. After that we went to the carvery in Windsor where I stuffed myself stupid in the name of birthday celebrations.

Since the weekend, we’ve been gradually packing our stuff up ready to move. We’ve taken a few carloads over to the new place, but there’s still plenty of stuff left to transport. The current idea is that we’ll hire a van on Saturday and Sam will help us move the remaining furnature, and accompany us to Ikea so we can buy sofas and coffee tables. At some point we’ll also be getting our new bed, the currently scheduled delivery date being this Friday. After that, we’ll move in and face the horrible stretch of time where we’ll be potentially internet-less. It’s been ordered, but even so, it could still take weeks. I mean I’ll have it at work, but it’s not remotely the same. Let’s hope there’s some unsecure wireless access available…

So, just for anyone keeping track, we’ll be out of here on the 8th if all goes to plan. The internet at this house is all but ready to be shut down too, which is a slight concern. Might be that we spend a day or two internet-less here as well. This is especially worrying since we’re planning to buy some Tenacious D tickets when they go on sale this week and it’ll be much harder without the Internet available to us. We’ve both got Friday and Monday off for moving, so the chances we’ll be at work to buy tickets are yet further reduced. We’ll probably have to resort to buying tickets over the phones, which I haven’t done in literally years…
