Moving. Moving in a few days. Signing a lease on Thursday. Moving into a house. It is a very very good house. I have a couple days off but cant do anything to get ready for the move until my workweek starts so all I can do is freak out and wait:)
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Mango salsa I have always hated. Something in San Franciscos looong phase of mango salsas or chutneys with Tilapia in every damn restaurant irks me.
