Change On The Horizon
June 17th, 2008In case you haven’t heard yet, Billy (my roomate) accepted a transfer position within his company; in New Orleans. I’m definitely happy for him but certainly going to miss his crazy ass and all of his ridiculous comments and stories. I’ve known Bill since 6th grade but we were never really close, I can certainly say in the past 9 months that has changed and I have gained a great friend. Ever since my interview in Utah at PGP back in September the kid welcomed me into his home and knew how to show his visitor a great time. I don’t think I will ever forget the first (of many) HarryO’s adventures. It was on the eve of my 25th birthday and we went to that place and just took shots and partied (and then I missed my plane the next day, awesome!). Yes, it will certainly suck without him here, but on the bright side of things this is giving me the opportunity to move down to the valley and be a measly 10 miles from work (instead of 40). I decided on this apartment complex called Mission Meadowbrook which is just on the border of West Valley City and Taylorsville. It is pretty decent, my apt. is 450 sq. feet (smallest one available) and is fully furnished for about $630 a month (they also are giving me a $200 gift certificate to Target!). The complex is also gated which is good for security and they have a very bad ass gym, indoor racquetball court, pool tables, pool, jacuzzi, the works. Hopefully this will also give me the opportunity to meet more people as I am going to be way out of my comfort zone knowing very few people here. I don’t see myself going to the bar solo but I’m sure at some point it will happen. Who knows, maybe the girl of my dreams will be living above me, but doubtful.
So, with all that in mind, I’m sure the next 2 weekends will be quite hectic as we both prepare to move and I’m sure there will be much partying to send off BT right. This weekend is his psuedo last weekend as the following weekend his work is throwing a bash for him at the bowling alley. Once I get settled in I will get some pics posted no doubt, keep your eyes peeled.
