Back in B'ham

If I'm ever in a rock band, I will lobby to call it "Back in B'ham."

As such, yes, I'm back home! (Lower-case "h"; Home is with my family...). I moved into the apartment with the help of my obliging and lovely roommate, and my obliging and patient father. Most of my boxes are unpacked, pictures are on the wall, meals have been cooked, coffee abounds in the kitchen, we've already gotten our first bill... ah, being a grown-up.

The only thing that I'm a little steamed about is that the wireless Internet (the apartment came with wireless Internet, or so it said in the lease that we signed) is not up and running yet. It's not that big a deal- it's not like we have no power or water or anything absolutely essential. But it is definitely inconvenient. This blog is being posted from the communications facility on campus. It's not that long a walk from home, but still. The folks at Landmark need to get their butts in gear. In the event that I bust an ankle or something (you may snicker, but it happens. And it's me. Let's face it.), I'd like to be able to communicate with the outside world!

I'll also be glad on Sunday when we can use the rec center again (without incurring "summer use" fees). Things will feel back to normal soon, when all of our utilities are up and running.
