I'm moving to a new apartment. It's kind of pathetic how little I have to pack. Five pieces of furniture, a big TV, and maybe six cardboard boxes of stuff, not counting clothes. Still, it's a big chore, and I've lived in this current house with the same roommate for almost five years.
I'm just moving across town to a nice apartment with a different buddy, so we're cutting a lot of corners--we don't have to box up the art and appliances and stuff. (It helps that I own one (1) painting and I'm not bringing any appliances!)
Who else has moved lately?

I moved THREE TIMES last year.
Buying furniture is terrifying. I need a coffee table.
Cons
It is a studio area with no real walls anywhere.
Pros
It is relatively cheap.
It has a zip line built in from the second level to the first level.
There is an area in the apartment which has a stage & can fit 30 people for a performance.
had to change locks twice times in the first few weeks
Sadly it means moving back to Orange County, which sucks because it is booooring as heeellll
Cannot wait

a week after moving isn't so bad though
Tonight one of the handles on our bathroom faucet broke off, spraying hot water all over the bathroom (and some on the bedroom floor)
We've stopped the water flow and cleaned up, and I'm talking to the people first thing tomorrow about getting it fixed. Thankfully this place is really good about getting on stuff quickly. Even when it's relatively minor stuff they generally get over to us in an hour at most, so I'm thinking this should be all fixed fairly quickly.
Still, it freaking blows that it happened at 9 at night when there's nobody to contact about it.
I use it as a good time to cleanse and start fresh. Get rid of all the bullshit and clutter you've collected and start fresh in a new space.
i felt like i was breaking up with him! i hope he doesnt stay mad at me because he is a fine dude, i just think living with him would be bad.
and on that note, my parents (or my mom at least) are terribly offended that i said i never want to live with them again. meaning that, by the time i get out of college, i will do my damndest to stay the fuck out of their house except to visit.
i can fit my entire life into two suitcases at this point due to all the shit i've had to leave behind
DOOOO IIIITTT
I'll need to see it in person first (the best friend also threw out the idea of having five-six people living there which I am not for...) but I really like the idea of that stage area for performances & such.
When I move out, I'm throwing a god damn party.
The complication is that I'm working in that area from the 3rd and don't have anywhere nearby to live
So did I!
Well, technically, I moved into an apartment, and then back to my Mom's house, and then into another apartment in the same complex as the previous one, in the same year.
I'll take a sleeping bag to work, it shows dedication and stuff!
Since 1994 I've moved 42 times between 5 states and about 8 cities.
Wait, you want to move back to Florida? On purpose?

Man, I actually like Florida. I hate cold weather, and Fort Myers is a solid town. I grew up there for the most part (moved there from New York when I was 9) I have friends there. It's a good place to be.
Also, when you live in Terre Haute, Indiana almost anywhere is an improvement.
Seriously though, it's the only state with their own Fark tag for a reason. Just saying.
