The Tortoise in This Move-In Race

This was free. Just sitting in a garbage pile 6 blocks from my apartment.

Well, I got my exercise in for the day. Woke up early after getting off of work around 9PM last night and hanging out, watching a movie, ordering in Mexican food, and drinking some beerz. But I went back to sleep (because I know I'm not going to get to sleep in again for a while) until noon. Whoops. Oh wellz.

I went ahead and got up and since I had to go to the UES to grab and pay for my Superbowl party ticket at Carlow East (it was cheaper to pay in person), I figured I'd run a number of errands and get my nails done Hawks colors and maybe do a little shopping (someone's birthday is coming up soon, isn't it?) before heading home.

And when I got off the subway I decided to walk from Utica instead of taking the 3 to Kingston like I usually would because, well, to be honest, I wanted to hit my step goal for the day. Since I am only used to getting on the subway at Utica, I got a little turned around on Eastern Parkway and started walking the wrong direction. This was super annoying until I figured it out, started walking in the right direction, and almost instantly saw the shelf. It was kinda far away and I almost decided against it until I changed my mind and went back muscling it home with pure strength of will and ending up with a good couple of bruises on my left hip bone and shoulder, as well as arms so sore it's difficult to hold my phone. Tomorrow will be interesting at work since holding a tray full of drinks is a regular occurrence.

But FURNITURE! I have furniture! Or, at least, one piece of it! And it was free! Bonus, no more boxes! Now I just need a bedside table and at least one lamp.
