Signed the lease yesterday: the place is mine. I have less than a month until I will be, for the first time in my life, a resident of a place other than Maryland. I won’t, of course, be a citizen of said location until I drag my lazy self to the DC DMV and get a new driver’s license …

… why a driver’s license when I’m planning on selling my car? Because at some point in my life I might wish to buy a car, and I’d rather not have to retake a driver’s test …

… anyway, so move in day is June 14th. I’ve decided to rent a cargo van and do the best I can to get as much stuff out of my apartment in one day as I can, especially the big stuff: bookshelves, chests, futon, couch, etcetra. I’ll still have two weeks to move the smaller stuff either into the new place, or into storage.

I can’t wait to see the view from the apartment’s roof deck.
