So it begins...

I woke up at the crack of dawn to get from (hometown) to LA today. After much bags, boxes, and furniture moving, I am set up in my apartment. My back and arms are all sore from all the moving, and I can now look forward to a night sleeping on the floor in a sleeping bag, as my bed has yet to arrive. But all the negatives aside, I love the new place. It's brand new, with all the trimmings, and (for Westwood standards) relatively affordable. Tomorrow, I have to go and buy some more stuff for the apartment, and walk around Westwood some more.

So, August 1, 2006 marks the day I left my old life behind to begin anew in unfamiliar Los Angeles.
