...my car was broken into. By which I mean someone opened the unlocked car and stole stuff. About seven cars on my block were broken into in the wee hours of Saturday morning. As if I had known they were coming, I left my iPod in the car (something I normally don't do), as well as a couple of old digital cameras (that I had planned to sell myself later in the day) and my parking money for the week (also something I don't normally do). So he/she/they made out pretty well in my car. My neighbor also had an ipod stolen. As much as having stuff taken sucks, I feel worse that there are people who would do this kind of thing. Completely disregarding respect for other people and other people's belongings. It makes me sad.
On a lighter note, my mother-in-law and I went to see Leatherheads today. It was completely enjoyable and had me laughing out loud and grinning from ear to ear! I highly recommend it!
I'm currently building a new iTunes library to replace the one that was lost on my iPod. Unfortunately, I had erased it from my PC and was plannig on loading it from my iPod to my laptop. Again, not the best timing! But building the library is a great excuse to go through my CD collection and add things that had been missing from the old library. I have lots of great music!!
Overall, I've had a very productive weekend. I can now say that I have sorted through every last possession of ours in preparation for the move. I even faced and conquered the dreaded junk drawer! Woohoo! I also 'tackled' four episodes of Battlestar Galactica...and the weekend isn't over!!
As I enter into my final week at my apartment, I'm feeling pretty calm and satisfied with where I am in preparing for the move. Of course, there's always little things to be done, but I think that I'll have no trouble taking care of them. I am starting to feel nostalgic/sentimental as I get ready to leave Asheville. As I drove into town today, I was reminded of my first view of Asheville when I drove through the tunnel for the first time four and a half years ago. The decision to move to Asheville was one of the best I've ever made. Not only did I experience great personal growth, but I met the man with whom I plan to spend the rest of my life. I will always be grateful for the time I've spent here and know that I'm going to miss it. I hope that our journey will bring us back to Asheville in the future.
