New apartment

I was really going to keep my blog updated. Really.

But instead I got carried away sending updates to identi.ca. I put the small things in there as they happen, and since most of my blog entries are a bunch of small things put together that kills most of the point of posting.

Sorry.

However, I have something large enough to be worth an entire entry… the wife and I moved! We are now living in Saginaw, not too far from where I work. Her sister had been living with us, and sharing a car with us. We lived 18 kilometers from work, and since we both work in the same building, but different shifts, this wound up being two or three round trips a day. Needless to say, gas was financially killing us. She got her own apartment a couple of weeks ago, walking distance from work. The wife and I got our own apartment a week later (last Friday) 5 km away. We are still in the precess of getting all our crap moved over here (we drive a Kia Rio and can’t afford a moving truck yet) and are surrounded by boxen, but we love it.

Neophilia

Over the past week Jennifer and I have been getting all sorts of fancy new stuff. I got some jungle boots and she got some shoes that are totally punk rock! I got a new library card, and Jennifer got the glasses she has been needing for a while now.

Oh, and we got a car.

We got the Kia Rio I previously mentioned due to cheapness and a good warranty. It is awesome so far, and if anyone is looking for a new car, I would recommend them. I wish they offered more options, but then again, they are affordable for a reason.

Now the wife can get a job, we will have enough money to get our fucking debts paid off, and we can do cool stuff like afford things! Huzzah!

Taxes

I filed my taxes the other day, and we should have our refund by the end of the week. After giving Laura some money we owe her, we will have around two grand and are going to get us a car. We are looking at the Kia Rio because it doesn’t cost much and comes with a good warranty. I will be making payments, which I don’t like, but after the experience I have had with used cars, I feel that it is worth it. Besides, we can still have it payed off pretty quickly.
