With two jumps and a round house, here I am.... well, WE, are all moved in up here in Puyallup, WA. I'm not really sure if I like it yet but so far I at least like my new job. It's also nice to have a home to come "home" to at the end of the day rather than a hotel room. Chelsea's here too, so that's a plus(she'll punch me if I don't say that).

I'm almost out this cut! I just booked my final plane ticket "home" from the great not so white north. I get home next Friday night at almost midnight, sleep a little, get up Saturday and roll to this years Swick-nic, then go pick up a hual, load it, get a beverage with my OC/West Linn peeps, sleep a little more, roll north to the new MattCave, unload the moving vehicle, sleep a little more, then start my new joint in Auburn Monday morning. It's going to be a little weird not being an Alaskan native anymore. I wonder if my skin will return to it's pre Alaska hue from this Eskimo shade of dark I've been rollin in.

You've been warned. Chelsea and I went up last night to look at some houses and apartments and finally settled on an apartment in Puyallup this morning. There's no turning back now! The apartment complex seems nice and for the price has more amenities than we even need. To list a few: indoor and outdoor swimming pool, dry sauna, full workout gym, full-size indoor basketball court, tanning bed, and movie theater for us and 13 of our closest friends. The one thing we really like is that it has gated access but right now we're not sure if the gate is to keep the rif-raf out or in; we're hoping out! Another perk for me is that I'll only be about a 10 mile drive from work:) I'll be accepting apartment warming presents in the form of cash so if you need my new address, shoot me line and I'll shoot you my new addy: please no small bills! haha! Just kidding of course...but seriously, if you're inclined to do so.....

I'm at an all time low of feeling left out right now. ALL my friends, and then some, are at the 'Old Fashion Fair' tonight in West Linn and I'm up in Alaska. I hate missing out on a good time and every year, the fair is nothing but... The fair is the one weekend when generations of fun come together to celebrate nothing but good times!
