Saint Paul livin'

So, it's been a week and a hlaf since we moved to Saint Paul and so far, this seems to have been a great move on our part. Aside from some shittiness in dealing with comcast cable company*, it's been great. The movers showed up on time and got everything in. We're probably 98% done with unpacking and our new apartment is starting to feel like a home. Which is nice. Those first days of sleeping on an air matress on the floor were not the most fun. At first we were just so excited to be here and get used to everything that it didn't matter, but I found it quickly lost its bohemian charm. And let's face it, I am not bohemian. I like nice things. Like mattresses...and couches. Oh, I love me some couches.
And I really love our new apartment. It's big. Three bedrooms big. And the location is superb. It's just over a block from Mitchell and tons of other shops and restaraunts. This past weekend we joined a local co-op that's 4 blocks or so from us. They looked like they have excellent, fresh meat and vegetables, and some very good lefse**.
Anyhoo. Everything has settled down now and so I'm trying to find something to fill the time I have on my hand. I have this feeling that if I don't find something to do, I'm just going to sit in my apartment and obssess about whether I'm really ready to go to law school. I'll read a lot of blogs and decide that maybe I am, only to reconsider every week or so. By the time I get to law school in August, there would be a good chance that I would be so amped up that I would end up throwing up on my shoes the first day. And I am not trying to set goals I cannot reach in law school, but one goal I am allowing my self is to not throw up on myself the first day. Every day after that is up for grabs, but a good, unsoiled first impression seems key to success in law school.
So. What to do with my time. I have this romantic notion that I'll find a job in a movie theater or a book store in the neighborhood and I'm going to pursue these jobs first, but I suppose I could end up temping somewhere too. I'm hoping I will still have some time to enjoy the last summer before law school starts kicking me in the face. We'll see.

*Note 1. Fucking Comcast. First they give us a defective DVR that shuts off every once in a while for no discernable reason, then when we're trying to switch it out for a good one, they miss 3 (THREE!) appointments. Then they finally came in and switched out the box only to find out that the box wasn't the problem. We've had another person out since then and though he had a different theory about what was wrong, it still has not solved the problem. I will say the customer service people and the manager I talked to were all very nice. This is possibly from all the practice they get, but I don't know.
**Note 2. I love lefse. Warm with a little bit of butter and sugar (not brown sugar. That's just wrong). Yum yum. The fact that lefse is something I can get pretty much whenever now is just one of the reasons I love Saint Paul. But it is a big reason.
