Cheers--here's to "men men"

So... guess what? I'm unpacked! There are no more suitcases in my bedroom. Aaaaahhhhh. Now we're just waiting for the bathroom. Which (cross fingers) should be done this week. Alexandra's mom is coming to visit on Friday, so the goal is to have everything liveable by then. My toiletries and so on are really the only things left to be put in their place... Still. It's a definite step forward!

I have this constant list of "oh yeah, I live here now" things to do. Things like setting up a bank account, printing resumes, looking into blood donation, looking into classes, getting a cell phone, getting a library card... all those things. So, I spent a good part of yesterday doing that. But first... I had lunch!



I love ordering there, because I never quite order something "normal." Now, granted, I was nicer than I am to my own coworkers (no "take the middle out"), and I definitely didn't go as far as I do when I make my own subs, but it was a custom order, for sure. Don't we all just love customers like me? I know I do!



And I know that absolutely no one but us Quiznos geeks will appreciate the significance of this next picture, but I would like you all to take a moment to look at the floor.



Sighs of envy and awe.

Anyways. I spent most of the afternoon in the East Village (NYU area), which I really liked. Maybe because a lot of the people there were kind of in my shoes. They're (we're) not really tourists--we're not trying to fit in the whole city in a week--and yet we're not really New Yorkers. Yet, anyways. We don't know everything there is to know

If we could actually see the floor--is it extraordinarily clean??! I know that is an ongoing challenge!

It's not the cleanliness, as the material. Anyone who knows what I'm talking about would get it instantly!

For what it's worth -- I guessed it was the tile you were referring to. My eyes must be a little better than Mom's, because I could see it in the picture!
