So, we've arrived! And we're living on the floor!Okay, while the second bit is admittedly less exciting, Danie and I have discussed it and we're certain there are some valuable lessons to be gleaned from sitting, sleeping, eating, drinking, emailing, reading, and now, blogging, on an air mattress. Lessons like: be glad you aren't doing the same activities directly on your hard wood? In any case, we should be off the floor soon. Yesterday (our first day here), we successfully maneuvered interstate public transportation to get to the New Jersey Ikea (the Garden State's alluring 3.5% sales tax easily vindicated the hour-long bus ride), where we found some great furniture that, thanks to next day delivery, we will be assembling this evening.
So here we sit--yes, on the air mattress--alan wrench in hand, waiting for the Ikea truck. Check back soon for pictures of the assembled apartment!

Looks pretty nice dude! Can't wait to see the update with the couch and kitchen table. Shoot some pics of view too!

Cam,may I suggest allotting more than one evening to assemble anything IKEA. You will also need more than an alan wrench. A couples' coach, a mouth guard to prevent TMJ, a case of varying adult beverages, and a fully loaded first aid kit might be useful. I'd also alert your neighbors not to be alarmed by sudden outbursts of expression. Danielle, this is no time to pull a feminist manifesto. Trust me. Just stay low and hope for the best.
