the big mess, aka our home...


here it is! i know this post is a bit belated. sorry for that. we think we will still be using this blog to keep all of you, our adoring fans, updated and entertained.


This is how everyone in Seattle dresses.



















I don't know why Catherine insisted I put this...on....my....

This is Michael at his finest. He got a haircut today and his beard is all trimmed up as well. Please note the shower curtain in the background: a map of the world. Although my vote was for the dancing penguins or the tastefut stripes, I have already learned a lot.







This is what the second bedroom looks like. Please notice the crushed Tupperware bins in which we packed the majority of our things. I believe only one arrived uncrushed. Quite unfortunate, although we haven't found a lot of broken stuff. Then again, we haven't really unpacked much either.






This is our new washer and dryer!!! They are hooked up right in our bathroom closet!! We got them on Craigslist, and tried to get a mover from there as well. The guy agreed, but did not pick up his phone on the day of the move and never showed up. We ended up paying a real company to come out last minute at a price of about 4 times more. Oh well. We still got a good deal on the appliances.










Here is our bedroom. I worked on it a bit yesterday and it looks better now. Still not great, though.















And, here's the living room. More crushed totes, piles of things, and crocodile dentist.






Another view of the living room, looking into the kitchen. Stuff is really all over the place right now. It really hasn't moved much. It'll be quite the project.










In conclusion, a haiku:



home, nice and spacious


like a big, fat burrito


filled with lots of crap.
