I've only written 500-some-odd words today, because I was doing this:

This is my current place. I actually had to do some modifications to the floor plan I found online to make it show the actual size of things. It made the kitchen look bigger than it is, and the linen closet, while making the closet smaller. A lot of the proportions were off. I fixed them. The original floor plan, that they show, is here, if you are curious.
Dark blue = bed
Black Bar = Shelves
Brown = Desk
Beige = Couch
Little Brown = Trunk thing
Grey = Wii & such
Little Black = TV and such
Light Blue = Papasan!
This will be my new place:

The windows and patio will be facing the... west-north-west, ish. Straight view into River Legacy Park. Where it says "Entry" is actually the door into the apartment- I'm on the corner of the building, I realized.
Next timeI'm procrastinating I have time, I might try to figure out how to arrange my furniture in the new place. If it's 582sqft, that's about 24 feet on a side, since it's pretty much a square. I bet I could approximate things and arrange my furniture nicely in photoshop.
I'm so obsessing over the new place. I keep the brochure with my floor plan with me at all times, and out on my desk at work, so I can look at it whenever I want. It makes me happy. I really can't wait. I'm going to start throwing things on craigslist soon, like my VCR without cables and my stereo I never use, just so I feel like I'm DOING something. I don't want to just wait until January. I might start boxing up some of my books and stuff soon. I mean, I'm not going to be rereading anything this month, because of NaNoWriMo, so I might as well. I could put them in my little gold "trunk", which sort-of seals, to keep critters from crawling in and moving with me.
In other news, I forgot to set my alarm clock last night. This morning I woke up five minutes before I was supposed to be at work. I sent a text to my supervisor lady to explain, then showered and went to work. I love that I can just text and be okay when stuff like that happens. My workplace is so awesomely casual.
