Greetings My Pretties. Much profuse apologies abound, I have been MIA for a while now. But it's not because I haven't been up to no good - because I have....

I wish to announce that all the microwave popcorn was in vain - Jungle Boy & I are very much on and very much happy and it's all

again. Hurrah!!

But that's not the most OMG LOLZ XTINA XCITEMENT bit. Oh no. Who wants to come to my housewarming??? Cos I've finally gone and got myself my own apartment! Ding to that people.

Best part about it; There'll be no Ex-Fuckers, no flatmates with undie-stealing-and-chewing-dogs; no flatmates that know Toadfish from Neighbours (fortunately or unfortunately); and no houses that have dogs who have the run of the house and leave stinky smells everywhere.

I'll finally be an independant woman (*cue Destiny's Child* Throw your hands up at me people!) So it's been all fridges and couches and bond and rent and moving vans and cleaning and other more uninteresting shit like that for the last week and a half.

Promise cross my heart, needle in my eye and other painful stuff that normal programming with recommence soon. I might even do an expose on moving home - I know you're dying to see my moving van! And even better, I hope to have my own internet connection in this place as well! So there'll be no more waiting until my boss goes out to read stuff, or pissing off the olds by staying at their place until the wee hours looking up blogs and porn doing research.

So be prepared for Martie's Moving Disasters and other such stories. Meanwhile, I shall leave you (but not for so long this time) with a picture of my new apartment:



Ahh no. It's more like this:



But I can dream though, can't I?

Go Martie - living on your own, that'll be awesome.

What a great post - I'm so happy for you!
Hey, is that the place just near the railway in Cheltenham?
Don't worry, we won't stalk you! I'm just testing my memory skills.

Hey, congrats Martie!

I'd looooove to live alone. But, given what a control freak I am, I think I better not. Since I know I'd never be able to live with anyone else again, once having the taste of solitary living. (No matter how much I adored the person). Having said that, god I hate flatmates. Or, um, grandmothers.

DJ - Yeah, I've heard of someone like that...

Caz - I make a mean punch & some kick ass vodka jelly shots in all colours of the rainbow! I've also got about 5 bottles of Baileys floating around, but because I'm now living on the poverty line, that's going to be all, I'm afraid.

Ben - You can't move in, although you're welcome to come press my security intercom buzzer.

Janet - I'm impressed with your memory - it is right near a train station, although, not quite the right suburb!!

Thank you all for still saying hi - stay tuned for some inside pics & my moving story...

Hmm, weird. Don't know what just happened to my comment.

There literally must be a duplicate of your building in Cheltenham then... same colour, same balcony dealie. Fneh.
I pity the people who do live at the one in Cheltenham, they'll be bombarded with your doting fans saying 'This looks like Martie's house!'

Congrats though, living on your own is too much fun! Though I think you might not find yourself on your own too much, if loverboy has anything to do with it!

Oh, and thanks for the linkage! I have another daily whingy place, you're welcome to pop by!

Yay you! And you know what living on your own means - NUDITY! Watching tv nude, eating breakfast nude, doing the ironing nude. It will totally rock.
