5 things make an update

1) Work's going great - everyone's friendly, there's enough variety to keep it interesting, and I get to listen to music all day. It's a lot of standing and my feet aren't happy, but I bought comfy new Crocs (classy) and will hopefully get used to it.

2) I worked Record Store Day, mostly by checking bags and making popcorn. We were super busy the whole day, which warms my heart. Long live the record store!

3) I got off early enough to go see Otis Clay perform. He and his band were set up in a small, third floor art gallery with no seating, so it was about 100 people sitting on the floor while he performed unplugged. Man is 70 years old and still killing it, it was fucking amazing.

4) I signed the lease on a new place! And move in on Tuesday! Somehow! I have slightly more stuff than when I arrived - two suitcases has grown into two suitcases, two file boxes, and a bag of bedding - and I have no idea how I'm going to move it all. I've asked around and no one I know has a car, so maybe a taxi? Or multiple trips on the El (it's only two stops down, less than a mile)? It's times like this I wish I had a driver's license. And a lack of intense driving anxiety.

5) I've got two potential roommates coming over Tuesday night to look at the place. Fingers crossed.
