KRISTA OVERBY BEST FRIEND

Hello dear readers.  I’m back.  I know it’s been so long, but I’ve been busy and blogging has fallin to the wayside, but maybe this marks a positive step in the direction of more blogging.  Yes?  Maybe.

Well I’m writing because I seem to have a lot to write about.  The first is that I, and my main man, have found a new place to live.  Yes, we moved in together a few months ago.  Betty (the cat) and I moved into his tiny bachelor pad around January with plans to all move into a bigger place in the spring.  And here it is spring and here we are moving…look at us following through on plans!  Imagine that. 

When I moved out of NYC one of the things I was looking forward to was the lower cost of apartments.  When I was bored at work I would look at other city’s craiglist apartment ads and just sigh.  When I found a particulary crazy one I would forward to my other coworkers - “a 3 bedroom, 2 bath apt, 24 hour gym, pool, on site masseuse, maid service, personal butler, dog grooming station, and private elavator!  All for $300 a month!  Sure, you had to live in Montana, but as we were all mostly living in cramped little roach infested apartments with 4 other roommates for $1200 each so it all looked worth it” - and we would all cry and how cheap the apartments were in other cities.  But now I feel like I’m living in my own little fantasy because I just scored one of the sweetest apartments ever and I didn’t even have to move to some dumb little town to do it.  Sure, Denver isn’t NYC, but it sure as hell isn’t anything to sneeze at.  Side note, Denver was just rated the nations most sexually satisfied city AND I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned the men out number the woman here 4 to 1.  I’ve pretty much moved to Shangri-La. 

So, here are the stats on my new place.  2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (2 bathrooms!  I don’t even need 2 bathrooms!), brand new everything…kitchen with stainless steel appliances, berber carpeting, bathrooms with awesome features like those cool sinks that sit on top of the counter…And the best part, 2 balconies!  Basically we are on a corner of the building and we have a balcony on both sides…one that runs along the entire livingroom/kitchen and one that runs along both bedrooms…each bedroom has sliding glass doors that open onto it.  And they are wide enough to fit chairs and a little table.  We will be on the 6th floor and the views are of mostly other buildings and houses, but if you look out to the right you can totally see the mountains!  So nice.  We had been looking at other places, but when I saw Mr. C’s (my boyfriend) face when he was standing on the balcony I knew it was the place for us.  I have pics and have uploaded them, but I have no clue how to make them actually show up on this website…maybe I’ll figure it out.
